Details

Description:

The valgrind doesn't work, it seems to lack something which i cannot be sure.

Steps to reproduce:

> valgrind ./a_binary
==162419== Memcheck, a memory error detector
==162419== Copyright (C) 2002-2022, and GNU GPL'd, by Julian Seward et al.
==162419== Using Valgrind-3.19.0 and LibVEX; rerun with -h for copyright info
==162419== Command: ./a_binary
==162419==

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: strlen
valgrind: in an object with soname matching: ld-linux-x86-64.so.2
valgrind: was not found whilst processing
valgrind: symbols from the object with soname: ld-linux-x86-64.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: Note that if you are debugging a 32 bit process on a
valgrind: 64 bit system, you will need a corresponding 32 bit debuginfo
valgrind: package (e.g. libc6-dbg:i386).
valgrind:
valgrind: Cannot continue -- exiting now. Sorry.

Hi, I tried the method in the post, and it works for me. Thanks!

However, I still consider it is a bug rather than my misconfiguration, but I am probably wrong.

Hi, my problem is that I switched default shell to fish, and thus didn't include the /etc/profile.d/debuginfod.sh

Switching back to bash as default solved the problem.

Feel free to close this bug report.

Yeah currently there are only bash and zsh startup scripts. In my opinion it's better to have at least some notes upon package installation via post_install().

Sounds like a feature request? Wanna create a separate ticket?
