    # Installing `gdb` in mac

    * install `gdb` binary using following scripts

    >> ```sh
    >> $ brew tap homebrew/dupes
    >> $ brew install gdb
    >> ```
    * `/Applications/Utilities/Keychain Access.app`
    * Open menu `/Keychain Access/Certificate Assistant/Create a Certificate`...
    * Choose a name (`gdb-cert` in the example), set `Identity Type` to `Self Signed Root`, set `Certificate Type` to `Code Signing` and select the `Let me override defaults`. Click several times on `Continue` until you get to the `Specify a Location For The Certificate` screen, then set `Keychain` to `System`.
    * using the contextual menu for the certificate, select `Get Info`, open the `Trust` item, and set `Code Signing` to `Always Trust`.
    * You must quit Keychain Access application in order to use the certificate and restart `taskgated` service by killing the current running taskgated process (so before using gdb).
    >> ```sh
    >> ps -e | grep taskgated
    >> sudo kill -9 <taskgated-id>
    >> ```
    * signing the binary using `codesign -s gdb-cert $(which gdb)`
