Hi,
I am looking for some valgrind users that want to try out the latest
valgrind package in rawhide.
If you use valgrind please try out the new valgrind-3.8.1-10.fc19
version in rawhide. It is the first version that puts the debuginfo in a
separate valgrind-debuginfo package (this saves ~35MB from the main
packages).

Upstream used to recommend against stripping debuginfo from the valgrind
vg preload libraries because it produced less usable warning/error
messages. But since a long time now valgrind intercepts are done in a
different way and just having the dynsym symbols around should be
enough.
Please let me know (or file a bug report) if using the new valgrind
package from rawhide gives less useful warnings/errors (and whether
installing valgrind-debuginfo solves any of such issues).
I tested valgrind-3.8.1-10.fc19.x86_64 (without valgrind-debuginfo).
It appears to work fine. There's no noticable difference between this
version and earlier versions.
Rich.
