Hi Nicolas,

GMP is not a dependency for valgrind. I had successfully built valgrind
using bitbake before attempting to build gmp, which is an entirely
independent package. My attempt to build gmp didn't succeed.
Now, when I moved back to valgrind building the problem occurred. I don't
understand why gmp is coming into picture.

By <recipe> do you mean the associated .bb file..?

Thanks,
Anil
