geany-plugin-debugger crashes with segmentation fault when used

[Peter Bauer]

I tried to debug a small C program with geany and gdb .
-Selecting target code works but
When pressing the run button in the debugger geany crashes.

ubuntu@tegra-ubuntu:~/ccode$ geany

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

[Leonardo Nicolas (leonicolas)]

This problem also occours in Geany 1.24.1 with Geany debugger plugin 1.24

Also affects me under Xubuntu 14.04.1 amd64 with Geany 1.24.1 and debugger plugin 1.24 ..

[silistri (silistri)]

Hello the issue is in file "debugger/src/dbm_gdb.c" at line 372 when geany tries to execute gdb command "-exec-run &"
I fix it by removing the character "&"

exec_async_command("-exec-run");

Best regards

This is fixed as of geany-plugins 1.24+dfsg-5
