Gef-Extras Breaks Gef on Arch #35

Closed hoefler02 closed 3 years ago

hoefler02 commented 3 years ago

After installing GEF extras I am no longer able to use GEF. When I try to run a file, I just get [*] No debugging session active. 

[michael@thinkpad ~/Code]$ gdb ./a
GEF for linux ready, type `gef' to start, `gef config' to configure
92 commands loaded for GDB 10.1 using Python engine 3.9
[+] Configuration from '/home/michael/.gef.rc' restored

gef➤  b main

gef➤  r
[*] No debugging session active
gef➤  r
[*] No debugging session active

The binary "a" is just a basic hello world, and my .gef.rc is here (it is just the default). Removing ~/.gef.rc makes GEF work fine.

This is because r is replaced in https://www.github.com/hugsy/gef-extras/tree/master/scripts/windbg.py. Same for many other common gdb commands like p.
