Issue
For some reason I reinstalled my OS(manjaro linux) yesterday, and installed gcc and gdb by pacman, then I write a very small example program to make sure my environment is correct, because I am a beginner in linux and gdb. After compile，it went according to my expectations. Then I wanted to take a look at the STL source code through gdb, so I opened my gdb with tui mode. Everything seemed normal at first, but my gdb can't step into ss.insert() that I want to see, with [ No Source Available ] on the top side of the screen. And I've found the directory of the source file of operator<< is different to the version that before reinstall OS, and /usr/shared/c++/ doesn't exist anymore!
This is the version information of GCC(g++) and gdb
Using built-in specs.

Solution
Why gdb complain to me that No Source Available (with g++ -ggdb3)
Because you are stopped inside libstdc++, which was built in a temporary directory (here /build/gcc/src/gcc-build/...) and that directory is not present on your machine.
It is exceedingly unlikely that you actually need to look at the source of operator<<(), but if you really do want to do that, install GCC sources, and use (gdb) directory to point GDB to the relevant sources.
