[Valgrind-users] A thousand bugs

[Mark W. <ma...@kl...>]

Hi all,

Valgrind is more than 20 years old and we have been collecting
bugs slightly faster than we have been able to close them. Which means
we now have around a thousand bugs open. This is a slightly
intimidating number.

But some of the bugs are more than 10 years old (the oldest bugs are
from 2004). So some of them are likely not really relevant anymore.

If people could do some quick spot checks of some of these bugs that
would be really appreciated.

The bugs can be found here:
https://bugs.kde.org/buglist.cgi?product=valgrind&resolution=---
Or per component here:
https://bugs.kde.org/describecomponents.cgi?product=valgrind

If you filed a bug yourself please look if the issue is still
relevant. Please add a comment saying so if it is, or close it if it
isn't. Same if it has a simple reproducer. If it has a patch attached
please check if it still applies.

Please don't go out of your way to close bugs, even old bugs can still
be relevant. But it would be good to know if they really still are and
we need to take another look at them.

Thanks,

Mark
