<pre>I was trying to use LSAN with a stock apt-get clang/llvm on 16.04. I was
surprised to discover that my suppressions list was not working. In the process
of investigating I discovered that while llvm-symbolizer-*** is installed
(where *** is the version number), no symlink is created from the enabled
llvm-symbolizer-*** to llvm-symbolizer. This causes LSAN to not be able to
symbolicate frames and thus limits the ability to suppress.
When I looked at the LLVM package's filelist:
<a href="https://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/amd64/llvm/filelist">https://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/amd64/llvm/filelist</a>
I noticed that llvm-symbolizer is not there. It really should either be added
there or clang should be taught how to use the llvm-symbolizer-*** that it
corresponds to. Otherwise, LSAN is not fully functional straight out of the box
(an anti-goal).</pre>
