NASM - The Netwide Assembler

After upgrading my Debian Box, my nasm upgraded to version 2.15.05 and gdb to 10.1.90.
So ddd start failing to step debugging, it says "single stepping until exit from function <NAME>, which has no line number information". But DDD is showing the source with the line numbers. Fails both for stabs and dwarf formats.
I have another box with Ubuntu Focal, NASM 2.14.02 and gdb 9.2 where gdb/ddd works well, but only with dwarf format.
Any ideias how to solve this?

Welcome to the Forum.
I don't know.
As you seem to know, Nasm defaults to "stabs" but "dwarf" is preferred. So "-F dwarf".
Do NOT give ld "-s". Seems obvious but some people do it.
Give gcc "-g" if you're using it.
Start your code with a single-byte opcode,,, "nop" is good.
Other than that... Good Luck!
Best,
Frank
