Guys,

Still chasing the keepassx problem. There are no debugging symbols in the package so I used ABS to build from source, but of course there is no debugging there either. What's the trick to compile so I can get a meaningful gdb backtrace?

in the PKGBUILD: options=(!strip) in the build() function on top: export CFLAGS="-g" export CXXFLAGS="-g" That should compile with default optimizations and includes debug symbols, which shouldn't get stripped before packing the package together.
