It also most importantly mounts your current ${PETSC_DIR} inside the container meaning you don’t have to reinstall PETSc inside docker. Anything you do inside the docker will also be mirrored on your “local” machine inside ${PETSC_DIR}. You will have to have a separate arch folder for running inside the image however so you will have to go through ./configure again.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Alternatively If you don’t want to build valgrind from source and instead use apt-get to install it you may remove the commands regarding building valgrind and installing libc6-dbg.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Hope this helps!</div><div class=""><br class=""><div class="">
