Again? This is really getting ridiculous, gud stands for Grand Unified Debugger, it makes no sense to me to refuse that it support other debuggers that many people would find useful. The way I see it, RMS is concerned that if people have the option of using LLDB over GDB, it will weaken the position/status of GNU, which is why he'd rather promote GNU tools over other free alternatives. However, isn't he replacing one "problem" with another? If developers cannot use the tools of their choice in Emacs, they will abandon it in favor of other development environments. To me, the best way to promote copyleft software is to not shelter it to the point that it becomes its own little isolated garden. Instead, it should strive to be a very useful citizen of the greater FLOSS ecosystem that people choose to use because of its technical qualities.
