Actually I only use gdb to inspect the program once it has crashed or
have been stalled by an assert - sometimes i also put
CLAM_ASSERT(false,"") as a breakpoint (yeah, i requires recompilation,
but some times it helps)

Most of the times i just use couts and analyse the trace. Sometimes
writing a very simple test that reproduces the problem helps a lot.

In this case, i'd check that the plugin
"libplugins_continuous_excitation_synth.so" gets loaded, so i'd print
out the files opened inside this method:

void RunTimeLibraryLoader::LoadLibrariesFromPath(const std::string &
path) const

CLAM/src/Processing/Plugins/RunTimeLibraryLoader.cxx line 30

This have to give us the key...
