I'm following 'Learn C the Hard Way', specifically the chapter on Valgrind. This chapter gives you a deliberately wrong program to show how Valgrind works.

When I run the exercise under Valgrind I do not get line numbers in my stack trace, just '(below main)' for the errors.

I am definitely compiling with the -g flag.

My Valgrind output is as follows:
