How to install gdb on OSX 10.9?

I try to use macports:

port install gdb
Password:
...
--->  Updating database of binaries: 100.0%
--->  Scanning binaries for linking errors: 100.0%
--->  No broken files found.

But I don't have gdb executable:

$ which gdb
$ 

I found out that macports gdb on mac is called ggdb. So I make a link:

sudo ln -s /opt/local/bin/ggdb /opt/local/bin/gdb

$ gdb --args ./prog -time

I made it this way (described here):

1. sudo nano /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.taskgated.plist

   change option string from -s to -sp at line 22, col 27.

2. reboot the computer.

3. Use gdb
