+## Symbolic debugging of higher versions of glibc
+
+If your environment is ubuntu16 or 18, then the default GDB version is lower (GDB < 8.3) and does not support parsing the symbol files in `.build-id.` In this case, you need to upgrade the GDB version.
+
+Version 9.2 is recommended, use the following methods to complete the upgrade

+```
+apt install texinfo
+cp `which gdb` `which gdb`-old
+cp `which gdbserver` `which gdbserver`-old
