Title:
  The gdbserver is not available on the device image

Status in the base for Ubuntu mobile products:
  New
Status in ubuntu-touch-meta package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  To enable debugging of applications with C++ code the target device
  must have gdbserver package installed.

  Right now for that the app developers need to turn the device writable
  and manually install the gdbserver package.

  It would be much more convinient and secure to keep the device
  readonly and have the gdbserver pre-installed on the device.

  The disk space should not be a concern  as all installed files from
  the package use up 215KB (binary - 190KB + doc - 20KB   + manpage -
  5KB)
