Title:
  Need to blacklist valgrind as it gives false-positives

Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  When running binaries under valgrind for development purposes, and the
  inner application crashes with eg a SEGV, apport pops up to submit a
  report for /usr/lib/valgrind/memcheck-amd64-linux, which is can
  contribute false-positives to the apport crash database.

  Thus we need to blacklist /usr/lib/valgrind/memcheck-amd64-linux.
