+As of changes made May 17 you must have GDB 6.9 or newer.  Ubuntu Vivid users already have this.  Otherwise, you'll have to build it from source.  This works for Ubuntu 14.04:
+
+```sh
+$ wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/g/gdb/gdb_7.9.orig.tar.gz
+$ tar xf gdb_7.9.orig.tar.gz
+$ cd gdb-7.9
+$ wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/g/gdb/gdb_7.7-0ubuntu3.debian.tar.gz
+$ tar xf gdb_7.7-0ubuntu3.debian.tar.gz
+$ DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=nocheck dpkg-buildpackage -j -us -uc -nc
+$ sudo dpkg -i gdb-multiarch*.deb
+```
