Author: jhb Date: Wed Jul 5 15:23:30 2017 New Revision: 320675 URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/320675 Log: Add deprecation notices for gdb and kgdb. Even though gdb and kgdb may not be removed for 12.0 on some architectures, the notice is unconditional as these tools will likely be removed at some point in the future when adequate replacements are available (gdb in ports or lldb in base).
