Description Andrés Roldán 2004-11-16 18:28:27 UTC
It would be great if valgrind provided a directory (say /usr/lib/valgrind/supp.
d/) where specific programs could put arbitrarily suppressions files for their 
execution and valgrind could interpret and concatenate the files stored there. A 
good example is Python2.{3,4} which provides a valgrind suppression file and it 
needs to be added by the user or the OS packager in a distribution-independent 
suppression file.

It's just a thought and therefore marked as "wishlist".

Thanks.
