I didn't use brew to install so brew uninstall doesn't work for me. Instead, I download a specific version of zip file from https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gdb/, then
./configure
make
sudo make install,
to install GDB on my /usr/local/bin. I want to try another version right now. Could anyone tell me how to remove this GDB completely from my computer? Thanks in advance!

Is there a way to install Valgrind on Catalina and have it run properly? If so, I would very much appreciate a step-by-step process.
I tried installing Valgrind with https://github.com/sowson/valgrind
but when I tested out helloWorld.cpp on the terminal, the console returned errors I should not have gotten.
I'm not sure if I committed an error on my part in the installation process of this version of Valgrind or if Valgrind itself is simply incompatible with Catalina OS.
I have also tried installing Valgrind via Homebrew, but I've had issues with that as well (github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/issues/36683).
Currently, no. The repo you link has an issue raised about Catalina compatibility. As you also show, the brew package has its own problems as well. Official valgrind only supports 10.12.
You'll just have to wait, or containerize it. Although if you containerize valgrind, you would likely need a compatible build container as well.
Ok. I've found a way to use Valgrind on Catalina. Here's a link to my guide for how https://github.com/john-yohan-park/Valgrind_Catalina
Works amazingly!! see https://github.com/LouisBrunner/valgrind-macos/issues/5.
Not Homebrew, you need to compile it from source, but it's not so difficult.
1. git clone https://github.com/LouisBrunner/valgrind-macos.git
2. cd valgrind
3. sudo ./autogen.sh
4. sudo ./configure --prefix=/where/you/want/it/installed --enable-only64bit
5. copy the [contents][1] to ./coregrind/m_mach/mach_basics.c
6. sudo make
7. sudo make install
enjoy!
This is how I just did it on Catalina 10.15.5:
brew remove valgrind # remove previous attempts at installing it (if any)
brew tap LouisBrunner/valgrind
brew install --HEAD LouisBrunner/valgrind/valgrind

Asked a similar question recently but trying to simplify it since no one have been able to help.
I'm trying to compile a c++ program and I keep getting the error that it can't find Poco/Data/SQLite/Connector.h.
using: #include "Poco/Data/SQLite/Connector.h"
I've ran about a dozen installs trying to get this to work including:
sudo apt-get install openssl libssl-dev
sudo apt-get install libiodbc2 libiodbc2-dev
sudo apt-get install libpoco-dev
sudo gmake -s install under the downloaded libpoco dir.
I even see src/connector.cpp installed with the last.
New to C++ and Linux (raspbian on the pi 2), but can't seem to get the code to find this library.
Any suggestions?
In case anyone else has this issue.
libmysqlclient-dev needs to be installed first for these libraries to get installed with the poco install. Just doing mysql-client doesn't do it.
Change your path "Poco/Data/SQLite/Connector.h" to "Poco/Data/SQLite/connector.h". Hope this will help.
I am on Mac OS X using codeblocks 10.05
I downloaded Valgrind, and extracted a folder. I am completely lost from there, and have no idea how to build it.
I do not know ANY terminal/console commands and am generally new to programming, so I have no idea how to "build" or "compile" it. I just have a folder called Valgrind with a bunch of random files in it.
Could someone please tell me how to proceed? I already checked the website/documentation but it didn't really give me installation instructions, just usage instructions.
Thanks
PS: I know I already posted this question, but the previous question was shut down, for being too vague. I reposted this one with more info.
PSS: All that I am basically asking is what do I do to install Valgrind right after I download it from the website and extract the files?
Recommended:
Use brew: brew install valgrind
Manual Install:
Here's what worked on my Mac (10.6). Double-check you have the latest version, then change into the uncompressed directory
cd /users/(insert username here)/downloads/valgrind-3.17.0
I suggest you do as another posted and read the readme.
nano README
Commence the build; /usr/local is the place on the filesystem that the program will be installed to. There are many arguments like prefix that are available to customize the installation to your particular system if it doesn't work by default. Normally just using ./configure works perfectly well though.
./configure --prefix=/usr/local
make
sudo make install
Or you could probably get it from fink or macports or homebrew.
You can install it through brew for Mac:
brew install valgrind
You might have to manually link the entry to /usr/local/bin as brew refused to do it in my case:
$ ln /usr/local/Cellar/valgrind/3.8.1/bin/vgdb /usr/local/bin/vgdb
ln: /usr/local/bin/vgdb: Permission denied
$ sudo ln /usr/local/Cellar/valgrind/3.8.1/bin/vgdb /usr/local/bin/vgdb
On MacOS High Sierra
If you have the following error message:
brew install valgrind
valgrind: This formula either does not compile or function as expected on macOS
versions newer than Sierra due to an upstream incompatibility.
Fix
(1) To correctly install it, first, type the following command at the Terminal (which opens Valgrind’s formulae)
brew edit valgrind
And change the URL in head section
https://sourceware.org/git/valgrind.git
to
git://sourceware.org/git/valgrind.git
(2) Do an update for Homebrew:
brew update
(3) Finally, use the following command to install Valgrind from the HEAD:
brew install --HEAD valgrind

For macOS Big Sur / Monterey:
brew tap LouisBrunner/valgrind
brew install --HEAD LouisBrunner/valgrind/valgrind
The core process is pretty simple:
Make sure you are in the correct directory.
First run:
./configure
when that is finished, run:
make
at this point you will need to su into root (this is relatively tricky to do, see the note at the end). As root, run:
make install
When this is finished you will have a working valgrind installation. Test it by running
valgrind ls -l
To su into root, you will need to have set up a root account. If you have not done this in the past, see the instructions from apple here.
To perform the actual su, you will first have to be running an account with administrator privileges. If you are not already doing so, you can switch users with the following:
su admin
where admin is the name of an user with administrator privileges (you will need to enter the password for this account). From there, you can then run su to go into root:
su
You will need to enter the root password that you set up earlier.
You may find it easier to use something like macports. How to install that is probably beyond the scope of this question, but they have a page dedicated to it on their site.
Once you have macports installed, you need to type:
sudo port install valgrind +universal
As you say you don't have any experience of command lines, let's just briefly go through the different parts of this command:
sudo means the rest of the command will run as root, and will ask for your password. This is needed for the installer to have the correct permissions
port is the command line tool for managing macports
install is a command for port. Try port help to see a list of commands.
valgrind tells macports what it should be installing
+universal is a variant. This tells macports to configure valgrind to support 32 bit and 64 bit support.
I am trying to install Qt 4.6.2 on ubuntu. When I run the configure script I get the following error message "You don't seem to have 'make' or 'gmake' in your PATH. cannot proceed".
On echo of the PATH variable I get
/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games
on running the command
$which make , I get
/usr/bin/make
How do I proceed with this issue? I seem to have the make in the path env variable but still the config script throws cannot find make or gmake?
It not the problem of make or gmake, nor PATH, Just because you unzip the tarball without -a option. so, to solve this problem, just use 'unzip -a *.zip', it will be fine.
I recently encountered this error in a fedora32 docker container, because the which utility was not installed. I was compiling Qt 5.12.9.
dnf install which fixed the problem.
You should have been installed build-essentials but did not restart try either to restart or type:
export MAKE=/usr/bin/make
and make sure with echo $MAKE
I downloaded the source again. I am able to run configure without any problems. Seems like there was an issue with the earlier source.
you should install build essentials
sudo apt-get install build-essential
and typesudo apt make install
How to download and install GDB(GNU Debugger) on Fedora Linux Machine.. I have tried downloading from gnu website 7.1 package, but then it fails during
./configure and then make command...
Please share the source from where i can get information on the same.
Thanks..
I have found this tutorial which might be helpful to install gdb.
http://www.tutorialspoint.com/gnu_debugger/installing_gdb.htm
But for me the command:
yum install gdb
works.
You may need to install some development packages with header files needed to build gdb. The exact package list depends on error messages from ./configure and make. Here is installed package list on my system:
# rpm -qa "*devel"
kernel-devel-2.6.23.1-42.fc8
ncurses-devel-5.6-12.20070812.fc8
python-devel-2.5.1-15.fc8
expat-devel-2.0.1-2
libtirpc-devel-0.1.7-12.fc8
glibc-devel-2.7-2
libstdc++-devel-4.1.2-33
Try to install all of them with yum.
