Comment 1 Alex Sersen 2013-06-24 14:04:49 UTC

Affected version:
valgrind-3.5.0-5.el5

Comment 2 Mark Wielaard 2013-07-04 20:35:04 UTC

209 is setxattr

Comment 3 Mark Wielaard 2013-07-04 21:24:09 UTC

This is also a problem with upstream svn trunk.
I filed a bug and provided a patch:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=321969

Comment 4 Mark Wielaard 2013-07-05 09:52:39 UTC

This is now fixed upstream as svn commit r13449.

Comment 5 Mark Wielaard 2013-07-08 21:45:38 UTC

Also in fedora valgrind-3.8.1-17 now.

Comment 7 mbenitez 2013-11-26 16:33:32 UTC

From devel:
That would be nice to have, but not super important IMHO.
Marked dev_ack+ because it has a trivial fix. It is for ppc64, so DTS will
not help there. It would be somewhat helpful for our own QE.

Due to low priority this won't make 5.11 ACL
