I've released KDbg 2.0.0. This starts a new stable release series, which 
supersedes the previous 1.2.x stable series.

KDbg is a C/C++ debugger, a front-end to gdb. The homepage is at 
http://members.nextra.at/johsixt/kdbg.html. Download it from 
http://members.nextra.at/johsixt/kdbgdownload.html.

The translations are mostly incomplete. Any contributions are very welcome (if 
you send a translation, please look also into the kdbg.desktop file!).

The manual is only available in English.

Major features introduced since the 1.2.x release:
- Editable variable values.
- The current line of execution can be changed easily.
- "Orphaned breakpoints", ie. breakpoints that cannot be set immediately. This 
eases debugging shared libraries and dynamically loaded modules.
- XSLT debugging thanks to Keith Isdale (experimental).
- Debugging of Qt4 QStrings.

Changes since 1.9.7:
- References and const types are treated like the base type (thanks to 
Shaheed).
- Fixed parsing of large arrays with many different values, which
were terminated by "...".
- Fixed the kdbg.desktop file: Encoding is UTF-8, install in XDG
menu location.
- Fixed PS_COMMAND detection for Solaris' /bin/sh.
