MBF: valgrind-if-available
Hi ladies and gentelhackers!
A lot of packages Build-Depend on valgrind, in order to run checks for
memory leaks, data races and what not during the testsuite. Alas, valgrind
is not available on some architectures, even release (armel) or want-to-be-
release (riscv64). Keeping the list current requires watching the valgrind
package, and not just the list it declares but archs where it actually
builds on (not x32...) and works (as of today all, but that wasn't always
the case).
You can now replace that list by:
Build-Depends: valgrind-if-available
or preferably:
Build-Depends: valgrind-if-available <!nocheck>
If you want to temporarily exclude an arch please do that with:
Build-Depends: valgrind-if-available [!zx-spectrum !pdp11]
instead of repeating the whole valgrind list.
Getting the list wrong results either in:
* failing to build on some archs, see eg.
https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=libdnf
* not running valgrind tests, letting bugs slide
And most packages get it wrong; the counts are:
7 valgrind [amd64 arm64 armhf i386 mips mips64el mipsel powerpc ppc64 ppc64el s390x]
5 valgrind
3 valgrind [amd64 i386 powerpc]
2 valgrind [amd64 i386]
2 valgrind [amd64 arm64 armhf i386 mips64el mipsel ppc64el s390x powerpc ppc64]
2 valgrind [!riscv64]
2 valgrind <!nocheck>
1 valgrind-mpi [amd64 arm64 armhf i386 mips64el mipsel ppc64el s390x powerpc ppc64]
1 valgrind [i386 amd64 powerpc armhf]
1 valgrind [amd64]

1 valgrind [amd64 arm64 armhf i386 powerpc ppc64 ppc64el s390x] <!nocheck>

1 valgrind [amd64 arm64 armhf i386 mips mips64 powerpc ppc64 ppc64el s390x] <!nocheck>
1 valgrind [amd64 arm64 armhf i386 mips mips64 mips64el mipsel powerpc ppc64 ppc64el s390x]
1 valgrind [!riscv64], valgrind (>= 1:3.15.0) [arm64]
1 valgrind [!ia64 !riscv64 !x32 !mips !sparc64 !sh4 !ppc64 !powerpcspe !hppa !alpha !mips64el !armhf !armel !mipsel !m68k]
1 valgrind [!arm64 !ppc64el !armel !alpha !hppa !hurd-i386 !kfreebsd-amd64 !kfreebsd-i386 !m68k !powerpcspe !sh4 !sparc64 !x32]
1 valgrind [!arm64 !ppc64el !armel !alpha !hppa !hurd-i386 !kfreebsd-amd64 !kfreebsd-i386 !m68k !powerpcspe !sh4 !sparc64 !x32 !ia64 !riscv64]
The correct answer currently is:
[amd64 arm64 armhf i386 mips64el mipsel ppc64el s390x powerpc ppc64]
but it keeps changing, and you don't want to track it by hand if I can do
that for you.
Thus: please [b-]depend on valgrind-if-available.
Meow!
