プログラミング/valgrindインストールメモ - bigoyayubi @ ウィキ

$wget http://valgrind.org/downloads/valgrind-3.6.1.tar.bz2
$tar -jxf valgrind-3.6.1.tar.bz2
$cd valgrind-3.6.1
$./configure --prefix=/usr/local/etc/valgrind --exec_prefix=/usr/local/bin/valgrind
$make
$sudo make install

でOK

Ubuntuでビルドしたらlibc6-dbgが足りないって言われた。

valgrind:  Fatal error at startup: a function redirection
valgrind:  which is mandatory for this platform-tool combination
valgrind:  cannot be set up.  Details of the redirection are:
valgrind:  
valgrind:  A must-be-redirected function
valgrind:  whose name matches the pattern:      index
valgrind:  in an object with soname matching:   ld-linux.so.2
valgrind:  was not found whilst processing
valgrind:  symbols from the object with soname: ld-linux.so.2
valgrind:  
valgrind:  Possible fixes: (1, short term): install glibc's debuginfo
valgrind:  package on this machine.  (2, longer term): ask the packagers
valgrind:  for your Linux distribution to please in future ship a non-
valgrind:  stripped ld.so (or whatever the dynamic linker .so is called)
valgrind:  that exports the above-named function using the standard
valgrind:  calling conventions for this platform.  The package you need
valgrind:  to install for fix (1) is called
valgrind:  
valgrind:    On Debian, Ubuntu:                 libc6-dbg
valgrind:    On SuSE, openSuSE, Fedora, RHEL:   glibc-debuginfo
valgrind:  
valgrind:  Cannot continue -- exiting now.  Sorry.

開発環境を整えてない場合、glibcのデバッグ情報出力ライブラリが必要になると思われる。

gdbでバックトレースしたときにソース情報までだしてくれるなら入ってるくさい。

libc6-dbgインストールはaptitudeコマンドで。(実はvalgrindもaptitudeでインストール可)

sudo aptitude insatall libc6-dbg

valgrindインストール後はPATHを通しておくと実行するとき楽.
