Package: valgrind
Version: 1:3.1.1-1
Severity: grave
I had the previous version of valgrind working fine. That version doesn't
seem to be available anymore. It may be that valgrind is incompatible
with the latest C library, which was probably upgraded at the same time.
The package is obviously "unusable or mostly so".
$ cat easy.c
int main(int argc, char *argv[]){
return 0;
}
$ gcc -s -O2 easy.c
$ valgrind --tool=none ./a.out
