Unfortunately, it always takes a while to get rid of those bogus errors.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sat, Sep 8, 2012 at 10:34 AM, David E DeMarle <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:dave.demarle@kitware.com" target="_blank">dave.demarle@kitware.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

I fixed that right away, but now I have the same problem on amber8 as<br>
I did on karego-at. Valgrind is catching leaks in the system libraries<br>
on this machine that don't matter from our perspective. As a result<br>
the valgrind result file is several GB in size, which cdash wouldn't<br>
be able to digest. I'll take another shot at writing a valgrind<br>
suppression file which cuts out the junk and leaves the actual<br>
problems later this coming week.<br>
