%general-entities; ]> $LastChangedBy$ $Date$ Valgrind Valgrind is an instrumentation framework for building dynamic analysis tools. There are Valgrind tools that can automatically detect many memory management and threading bugs, and profile programs in detail. Valgrind can also be used to build new tools. &lfs77_checked; &gcc5_checked; Package Information Download (HTTP): Download (FTP): Download MD5 sum: &valgrind-md5sum; Download size: &valgrind-size; Estimated disk space required: &valgrind-buildsize; Estimated build time: &valgrind-time; Additional Downloads Required patch: Valgrind Dependencies Optional , (with Clang), (for tests), and OpenMP Optional for regenerating the documentation and (or ) User Notes: First apply the following patch for allowing the configure script to use glibc-2.21: patch -Np1 -i ../valgrind-&valgrind-version;-glibc_2.21-1.patch Install Valgrind by running the following commands: sed -i 's/-mt//g' configure && sed -i 's|/doc/valgrind||' docs/Makefile.in && ./configure --prefix=/usr \ --datadir=/usr/share/doc/valgrind-&valgrind-version; && make To test the results, issue: make regtest. The tests may hang forever if is not installed. Now, as the root user: make install sed -i 's/-mt//g' configure: Fixes configure script to find newer versions of Boost. sed -i ... docs/Makefile.in : This sed provides for installing the documentation in a versioned directory.
