Package: valgrind
Version: 1:2.4.0-2
Severity: important
Hi,
valgrind's --db-attach=yes option ought to behave sensibly when
debugging programs with redirected stdin/stdout.
valgrind --db-attach=yes foo <input-file
will get to the first error and then exit(0)! This is Far From Ideal
(TM). It's particularly bad because programs that take input on stdin
and output onto stdout are a standard UNIX idiom, so not being able to
debug them sensibly using valgrind/gdb is a serious
problem. Suggesting authors of code re-write chunks of code just to be
able to debug them is not plausible.
Valgrind should supply a gdb helper script that replugs fds and
/dev/tty to set things up in the obviously sensible manner, and that
should be the default debugger command. I don't believe this would be
overly difficult to do.
Thanks,
Matthew

valgrind (1:3.6.99svn11761-1) experimental; urgency=low
.
* Package a pre 3.7.0 snapshot (up to r11761 on 20110517).
* 3.7.0 comes with a gdbserver features which mitigates the following bugs:
- Gdb interactions are simpler and avoid issues due to embedding
(Closes: 309406, 270066, 351823)
- this comes with better handling of registers (Closes: 576236).
- 3.7.0 has a s390x port, so enable it as an architecture and see where
it goes.
* remove 0003-prevent-gcc-4.6-warnings-with-valgrind.h.patch since upstream
now integrates those changes.
* lintian fixes:
- add overrides for sgcheck binaries and DSO.
- update debhelper version depends to 7.0.50~ as suggested.
