Yeah, getting the same problem after switching to Parrot OS KDE environment. I am also not able to figure out what's causing it. BTW did u manage to solve it @justlooks ?

Ohh It was just coz GDB wasn't updated on my system. maybe that helps!!

On my system I had gdb 8.x, but it was not compiled with python support.

Fixed it by running sudo apt install gdb (no idea why I had a bad version of gdb)
