    Description

      Initially reported on the ML:
      http://lists.qt-project.org/pipermail/qt-creator/2017-July/006649.html

      I'm using QtCreator 4.3.1 on KUbuntu-17.04, arm-gdb 7.12.1 (Yocto Poky 2.3), target is a beaglebone.

      I have setup QtCreator kits, and the remote host, I can compile and remote run a simple Qt5 program, but i cannot remote debug it.

      I can manually run gdbserver on the target, and manually run arm-poky-linux-gnueabi-gdb on the host, and debug my application this way. But for some reason it doesn't work when using QtCreator. When i start a debug session (f5), I end up with a "Debug has failed" message
