manually update debugger version

Currently i am running esp-idf version 4.4.1 (git repo tag 4.4.1) on a linux manjaro.
Unfortunately the debugger fails, as the debugger version in esp-2021r1-patch3-8.4.0 requires pythonlib 2.7 even idf is setup only using python3.8 or higher.

According to this closed issue on github -> https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/issues/6334

I downloaded the gdbv11.1 from the official binutils-gdb repository and the debugger works!

Is there a solution to manually update the gdb in the idf setup or do i have to wait for the next esp-idf release 5.0?

Thank you very much beforehand.
