Just make install is not enough to install a port on freebsd. You can find the instructions to build a port here: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/handbook/ports-using.html In short, you go to the valgrind ports directory and execute make make install and optionally make clean Cheers, Christian |

I was just using FreeBSD some time ago, so I know about the ports and the way to install them. Maybe the original poster can share some light on this question? Cheers, Christian |

Looks to be pretty old / diverged: http://www.freshports.org/devel/valgrind/ The author's homepage suggests it forked in 2004, the svn link is dead, and the provided tarball suggests it's sourced from 2.1.0. -tom |

I have a machine here that runs FreeBSD 6.2 and indeed in /usr/ports/devel there are two ports: valgrind and valgrind-snapshot. I've installed the snapshot version and it identifies itself as 'Using valgrind-2.1.0'. So it's a quite old version unfortunately. I've tried hacking about the configure file to compile the 3.3 version but I'm not very versed in that kind of black magic. Has anybody succeeded? I'd love to have a more recent version available.. Kind regards, Benjamin |
