Dap configuration: Async job failed: None

[getreu]

The installation instructions worked well for me. The only issue: Codelldb expects the llvm libraries in another directory then Debian. This was quickly fixed with some symbolic links:

# pwd
/usr/lldb
# ls -l
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 Dec 10 06:14 lib -> /usr/lib/llvm-13/lib
# cd lib
# ls -l
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root       12 Dec 10 06:32 liblldb.so -> liblldb.so.1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root       38 Jun 16 12:00 liblldb.so.1 -> ../../x86_64-linux-gnu/liblldb-13.so.1

Second issue was: No external terminal defined
This disappeared after setting in config.toml:

[editor]
terminal.command = "bash"
terminal.args = ["-c"]

Now I get: Async job failed: None

My versions:

$ hx --version
helix 22.12 (96ff64a8)
$ ls x86_64-linux-gnu/liblldb-13.so.1
$ codelldb -V
1.8.1

Bash is a shell as opposed to a terminal.

Something like this works, that is, it causes the program that's being debugged to be displayed in a new terminal window:

[editor]
terminal.command = "xterm"
terminal.args = ["-e"]

(Insert your favourite terminal emulator in place of xterm.)

Trying to use bash as the debug terminal will, at best, result in the program's output being spewed over the top of Helix, with no way to give input to the program.

I don't think this was the cause of Async job failed: None, but it may have helped to mask that cause.
