When I start ddd, it seems hang waiting for gdb. Here is the tail end of output ddd --trace:

#  Saving session in "/home/kbrandt/.ddd/sessions/106d7eb3d567f23b01125736049734486400000041300582/init"...

<- "(gdb)  "

This doesn’t happen if I pick a different debugger like --perl. I read about adding set prompt (gdb) to ~/.gdbinit (space at end), but that doesn’t fix it. gdb starts fine on its own. Anyone know what this might be?
