I have attempted to install valgrind-3.5.0 by downloading the tar ball and closely following the read-me instructions to build the package. However, when I am all finished and run "valgrind --version", I am informed that the version I have installed is "-3.3.1-Debian". Can anyone tell me what is going on? I am running Ubuntu 8.10 within Parallels on a Mac OS-X 10.5 system. Thanks ... ======================== Norman Chonacky nor...@ya... |

Here is the command line query and its outcome:
norman@norman-MacPro:~$ which valgrind
/usr/bin/valgrind
Hmmm... I'm sure I used the --prefix=/home/norman when building
valgrind from the v3.5.0 source I had downloaded. Why the valgrind
executable ended up in this particular directory instead of where I
pointed to? Does have a consequence? BTW, the date on the executable
(c.f. below) is 2008, which is before the release of valgrind-3.5.0!
norman@norman-MacPro:~$ ls -al /usr/bin/valgrind*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 811 2008-06-19 04:14 /usr/bin/valgrind
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 39590 2008-06-19 04:14 /usr/bin/valgrind.bin

Still doesn't come to your mind that your linux distribution installed a previous version of it ?

The directory you installed to isn't in PATH, so you're running the system
valgrind.

Does /home/norman/usr/bin/valgrind --version (or possibly, /home/norman/usr/local/bin/valgrind --version) yield the expected result? Cheers, --Tim |

What may trouble you more is the fact that you will begin expecting,
even demanding that other operating systems behave in a similar way
should you continue to wrap your head around a UNIX-like operating
system :)
If you edit /home/norman/.bashrc , you can add /home/norman/usr/bin
and /home/norman/usr/local/bin (a lot of programs by default want to
install themselves in {prefix}/usr/local, unless you specify --bindir
when configuring) to your path so that the stuff you install in your own
corner of the system takes precedence over the host versions.
Glad you got it sorted.
Cheers,
--Tim
