Description

I am trying to install pwndbg on my virtual machine (Vmware)
Kali Linux 2017.2

Linux kali 4.13.0-kali1-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.13.4-2kali1 (2017-10-16) x86_64 GNU/Linux

I just follow the readme file to install it, but something wrong

the script said that that the 'Python.h' is not found, but actually this file is stored at :

# locate 'Python.h'
/usr/include/python2.7/Python.h
/usr/include/python3.5m/Python.h

by the way, I already have psutils installed on my virtual machine

could you help me to figure out how to solve it ?
thank you so much

Can you try apt Install python-dev or python3-dev?

Your GDB was built with Python 3.6.

The failing command has this on the command-line has:

-I/usr/include/python3.6m

And the last line of your issue contains:

```
Command "/usr/bin/python3.6 -u ...


So these two files don't help you:

locate 'Python.h'

/usr/include/python2.7/Python.h
/usr/include/python3.5m/Python.h
```

You need to install the development package / headers for the correct version of Python.

zachriggle on 24 Oct 2017

oh, I already have python-dev and python3-dev installed...
I don't know why the problem occurred.
Could you tell me how can I install gdb which is built with python 3.6?
thank you so much

@zachriggle Do you mean, that I should remove gdb, and download its source code and recompile it with python3.6?

WangYihang on 24 Oct 2017

@WangYihang No, what I mean is: apt-get install python3.6-dev

In any case, see #357. GDB is broken on Kali. I'd recommend using a distro that doesn't ship broken packages, or building GDB from source.

Building gdb from sources ain't that hard. I will leave it here if someone needs that:

wget https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gdb/gdb-7.12.tar.xz
tar -xvf gdb-7.12.tar.xz
cd gdb-7.12
mkdir build
cd build
../configure --prefix=/usr --disable-nls --disable-werror --with-system-readline --with-python=/usr/bin/python3.6 --with-system-gdbinit=/etc/gdb/gdbinit --enable-targets=all
make -j7
sudo make install

This might require installing some dependencies like readline.

Important note: adjust the gdb version (the latest stable should be the best :P) and python version/path.
This also enables all targets so you can use gdb to connect to gdbservers with mips/arm and other targets.

Installing this:

 sudo apt-get install libpython3.6-dev

Solved all my problems on Debian Buster

For 4.18.0-kali3-amd64:

sudo apt-get install libpython3.7-dev
