A package of mine shows a valgrind report at with the details clearly indicating that no memory is lost:
Apologies if I'm misunderstanding the problem, but which package is it? Does the ERROR SUMMARY also show 0 errors? I would have assumed it's the dtts package, but that one shows a non-zero "possibly lost" value. For dtts [*], there's also "invalid read" messages intermixed with the test output, although I'm finding them very confusing: how can it be invalid if it's within the bounds of the allocation and the address seems to indicate correct alignment?
