Re: [Valgrind-users] valgrind installation failed

[Alexander P. <gl...@go...>]

It will be accessible, but you'll have to provide the full path to the
binary, e.g.
 $ /path/to/valgrind/source/inst/bin/valgrind ./your_program

If you want to just type `valgrind`, you'll need to either install it
to /usr/local, or add  /path/to/valgrind/source/inst/bin/ to your
PATH:
 $ export PATH="$PATH:/path/to/valgrind/source/inst/bin/"
