Debug Reiser4progs with GDB

1. Make sure you have the latest version of Reiser4progs:

   $ git clone https://github.com/edward6/reiser4progs

2. Compile and build static binaries with debugging symbols:

   $ cd reiser4progs
   $ ./prepare
   $ ./configure --enable-debug --enable-full-static
   $ sudo make

Troubleshooting. If you use Fedora distro, then make command can fail with the following:

    /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -luuid" during compilation

Possible solution:

   # cd /usr/lib64
   # sudo mv libuuid.so libuuid.so_
   # sudo ln -s libossp-uuid.so libuuid.so

3. Run gdb against needed binary that can be found in ./progs directory. For example:

   # gdb progs/fsck/fsck.reiser4
