The GubedTest project is located under /srv/www/htdocs/Gubed/GubedTest/
so I set the basedirs to that directory. 

The preview prefix is configured to http://localhost/Gubed/GubedTest/

When I preview
http://localhost/Gubed/GubedTest/tests/variables/index.php the preview
launches correctly as it did in 3.3.2.

When I try defining a breakpoint in
/srv/www/htdocs/Gubed/GubedTest/tests/variables/index.php it prompts me
for the basedirs,

I tried changing the project basedirs to
/srv/www/htdocs/Gubed/GubedTest/tests/variables/ and it still prompts me
every time I set a breakpoint or launch the debugger.

Even if this were to solve the problem it would not be workable for a
project like phpbb or OS Commerce or any other web app that isn't a flat
directory.

In order to rule out permissions I did chmod -R 777
/srv/www/htdocs/Gubed and it still prompts with that dialog.

No translation should be taking place since all of the files are local,
and they are not symlinks.

Also to rule out any possible syntax changes in the project file, I
deleted the original project and created a new one.

I ran into this with 3.3.2 and since I couldn't RTFM (there is no real
FM to R ;)) I posted to the list and werner was kind enough to point me
in the right direction and it solved the problem then.

see above

It works even if I just cancel the dialog, but it's hard to debug when
the dialog pops up on every breakpoint, every time the debugger loads a
file, and every time it stops on a breakpoint - hence my trying to
resolve this with the Gubed test project first. 

incidentally, while debugging, does Quanta *have* to draw each file and
each line as it is debugging? This slows execution down terribly. On
Windows with ASP.net, Visual Studio doesn't do this unless stepping
through - it just runs and when it encounters an error or a breakpoint
it just draws the file in question and brings focus to that line of code
- execution while debugging is nearly as fast as release mode.

Side issue is resolved thanks to Andras' (thanks!) suggestion pointing
me in the right direction. It seems that although one of the libraries
was installed it didn't link correctly,

Thanks for the reply Linus.
