+1. Put the pygdb directory to somewhere, lets call it <dir>
+2. Add the following lines into your ~/.gvimrc:
+
+       python << >>
+       import sys
+
+       #Do not use a ~ for home directory
+       pygdbdir = "<dir>" 
+       sys.path.append(pygdbdir)
+       >>
+
+       autocmd BufRead *.c* source <dir>/pygdb.vim
+       autocmd BufRead *.c* call GDBMapDefaults()
+
+   where you replace <dir> by the corresponding path of pygdb. You may want to
+   add <dir> to the environment variable PATH resp. PYTHONPATH such that you
+   cou can call pygdb from console by hand.
