After a successful autogen with the --enable-dbgutil flag set and a successful 
make, I can't seem to get gdb to debug libreoffice. 

I've probably done something silly or missed out something obvious as I've 
never had problems before in running gdb against Libreoffice. 

I've tested gdb against an "Hello World" program and got expected results see 
below.

Any suggestions greatfully recevied.

This is what I get towards the back end of gdb when assigning it to a running 
soffice.bin -
