Bug ID: 418106
Summary: configure error: Valgrind not working with Darwin
version 18.14.2
Product: valgrind
Version: 3.15 SVN
Platform: Homebrew (macOS)
OS: macOS
Status: REPORTED
Severity: major
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: jsew...@acm.org
Reporter: wtseg...@mac.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
I tried to install Valgrind on my macOS computer OS10 Mojave using Homebrew.
However, when I tried to install it, I got an error thrown back at me in the
terminal stating that Valgrind will only work with Darwin versions 10 - 17 but
not 18.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Tried to install Valgrind by running 'brew install valgrind' in terminal,
but this was returned: 'valgrind: This formula either does not compile or
function as expected on macOS
versions newer than Sierra due to an upstream incompatibility.'
2. Followed the instructions on this site:
https://www.gungorbudak.com/blog/2018/04/28/how-to-install-valgrind-on-macos-high-sierra/
3. Contacted Homebrew with the issue and they told me to contact the developers
for Valgrind
OBSERVED RESULT
This is what I got back in the terminal after running 'brew install --HEAD
valgrind':
$ brew install --HEAD valgrind
