Install procedure doesn't really work with GNAT Pro

[ptroja]

The Install procedure for .gdbinit suggests to put there:
sys.path.append('/home/ptroja/gnat-gdb-scripts/gnatdbg')
but I only got your fix for #3 to work after changing that line to:
sys.path.insert(0, '/home/ptroja/gnat-gdb-scripts')

Apparently gnat-gdb-scripts are already shipped with GNAT (Pro?), at least they already came with my recent GNAT from GAIA. Appending to the sys.path didn't work, because gdb was still picking the package that came with GNAT, not the one that I took from Github; that's why I had to "prepend" to sys.path with insert.

Also, for python import gnatdbg to work, the sys.path must include the directory where gnatdbg is located, not the gnatdbg directory itself.

Otherwise, your fix works great, thanks!

Hello @ptroja,

Prepending is aood idea, we’ll do that: thank you for the suggestion!

Also, for python import gnatdbg to work, the sys.path must include the directory where gnatdbg is located, not the gnatdbg directory itself.

I think the current phrasing describes exactly that: do you think it should be improved? I’ll try to add a note.
