Bug Description

On trusty the file /usr/share/go/src/pkg/runtime/runtime-gdb.py is evaluated in python 3 when it is sourced by gdb. Unfortunately this file uses python 2 syntax.

To reproduce this error:

  $ mkdir -p ~/go/src/foo
  $ cd ~/go/src/foo
  $ echo -e "package main\n\nimport \"fmt\"\n\nfunc main(){\n fmt.Printf(\"Foo\")\n}\n" > foo.go
  $ export GOPATH=~/go/src
  $ go build
  $ gdb foo
  (gdb) source /usr/share/go/src/pkg/runtime/runtime-gdb.py

The error can be trivially resolved by running the following command:

  $ sudo 2to3 -w /usr/share/go/src/pkg/runtime/runtime-gdb.py

Note also, if bug #1076454 is resolved then the "source.." line in gdb, used above, will happen automatically.
