From 963bcc8b71e4ab8c9ee9a91ed1300b6e39219821 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Pablo Galindo Date: Fri, 7 Sep 2018 23:10:28 +0100 Subject: [3.6] bpo-34007: Skip traceback tests if the Program Counter is not available. (GH-9022) Sometimes some versions of the shared libraries that are part of the traceback are compiled in optimised mode and the Program Counter (PC) is not present, not allowing gdb to walk the frames back. When this happens, the Python bindings of gdb raise an exception, making the test impossible to succeed.
