[linuxtools-dev] Valgrind versions - support only newest?

[Daniel HB <danielhb@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

While doing some tests with Helgrind I saw that the newest Helgrind
version comes with more options than the current Helgrind plug-in
supports today. I haven't noticed it before because the older options
still exists and running Helgrind does not trigger any errors. I need to
check, but it's possible that the other Valgrind plug-ins are outdated
as well. 

It's a no-brainer that we should support the newest Valgrind version
always (right?) but are we going to keep a backwards compatibility with
the older versions?

Of course that it doesn't matter the answer, this won't be a work for
1.1. But we can probably consider it for the next minor version. It's
not a bug fix so we don't need to rush.


Thanks,
