It seems that a 2.x.x release crashes when it finds files from a 3.x.x release:
$ /usr/bin/valgrind --version valgrind-3.2.0-Debian $ /usr/local/bin/valgrind --version valgrind-2.2.0-ppc $ echo $PATH /usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/games It's not very nice to make the older release just crash with SEGV and no explanation. To avoid future problems like this, valgrind ought to detect the version mismatch. Note that valgrind was working fine until the upgrade. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
