Summary: RefDbg is a GObject reference count debugger.

Description: 

RefDbg is a GObject reference count debugger. GObject is part of the
glib library. The GObject library adds object oriented stuff to C which
by itself lacks object oriented features. Since C lacks garbage
collection, a reference counting system is used. Each object has a count
of how many other references (pointers) there are to it. Reference count
bugs can be very hard to track down and can lead to crashes and memory
leaks. Refdbg is a tool that can be used interactively with GDB to log,
display and break on reference count activity, thereby making this task
easier.
