Hi,

You need to issue a command at this point to get GDB to write the
backtrace of the crash:

        thread apply all bt

I also suggest that before you type run, you issue this command:

        set logging on
        
And GDB will log to gdb.txt in the same dir, and there's no need to copy
and paste output.
