I don't know. I haven't heard from Andrew (gdb maintainer). Maybe the
snapshots are broken. Maybe the inability of Red Hat and/or FSF to
officially donate/accept Insight has irritated gdb too much, and they're
dropping it.
All I know is that until Insight is officially donated to/accepted by
the FSF, I am not going to work on it very much, other than to keep it
working for my needs. And even if/when that hurdle is finally overcome,
I doubt that I will work on it too much, since IMO, very few care
(except when things break). Okay, that's harsh. I can name two people
who care (me being one of them).
You're best bet is to check them out of CVS. Directions are on the web
page (sources.redhat.com/insight/downloads.htm). [Grab development
version or look for a 6.1.1 branch name that was used.]
