Good evening, I'm trying to debug an issue with Evolution and the Gnome guys asked me to use valgrind. However, when running this command I get an error I'm stuck with: valgrind --num-callers=30 --leak-check=no --track-origins=yes /usr/lib/evolution-calendar-factory -w ==4915== Memcheck, a memory error detector ==4915== Copyright (C) 2002-2024, and GNU GPL'd, by Julian Seward et al. ==4915== Using Valgrind-3.23.0 and LibVEX; rerun with -h for copyright info ==4915== Command: /usr/lib/evolution-calendar-factory -w ==4915== valgrind: Fatal error at startup: a function redirection valgrind: which is mandatory for this platform-tool combination valgrind: cannot be set up.

The problem with valgrind on Arch is that you have to update your system first with pacman -Su for valgrind to work. If I remember correclty OS packages must be in sync with corresponding debuginfo packages provided by debuginfod.
I do not know the details - maybe there is a subset of packages that needs to be in sync with debuginfo, I just sync them all when I need to use valgrind.
