Valgrind not working

[Andreas Enge <andreas@enge.fr>]

Hello,

when trying to debug a program of mine with valgrind, I see the error
message below. Following the suggestion to install libc6-dbg, I installed
glibc:debug, but without success.

The executable itself has these properties according to "file":
ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /gnu/store/2fk1gz2s7ppdicynscra9b19byrrr866-glibc-2.33/lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, for GNU/Linux 2.6.32, with debug_info, not stripped

Is there a problem with our valgrind or with my setup?

Thanks for your help,

Andreas
