Add add-auto-load-scripts-directory.
There is already "add-auto-load-safe-path" which works like "set auto-load safe-path" but in append mode. There was missing an append equivalent for "set auto-load scripts-directory". ABRT has directory /var/cache/abrt-di/ as an alternative one to /usr/lib/debug/ . Therefore ABRT needs to use -iex parameters to add this /var/cache/abrt-di/ directory as a first-class debuginfo directory. Using absolute "set auto-load scripts-directory" would hard-code the path possibly overriding local system directory additions; besides it would not be nice anyway. gdb/ChangeLog 2014-11-30 Jan Kratochvil <jan.kratochvil@redhat.com> Add add-auto-load-scripts-directory. * NEWS (Changes since GDB 7.8): Add add-auto-load-scripts-directory. * auto-load.c (add_auto_load_dir): New function.
