Well, that’s easy to see it is _still_ broken: https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://gitlab.com/petsc/petsc/-/jobs/6419779589__;!!G_uCfscf7eWS!cZG6l8dQlL2q2LEgYiQw4bVE64zferDGxmonm_Z2I-6VXhae4u8oQiPv0BSGhXpi3y27-tKR-5wxh9MDGerWMQ$ 
The infamous gcc segfault that can’t let us run the pipeline, but that builds fine when it’s you that connect to the machine (I bothered you about this a couple of months ago in case you don’t remember, see https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://gitlab.com/petsc/petsc/-/merge_requests/7143__;!!G_uCfscf7eWS!cZG6l8dQlL2q2LEgYiQw4bVE64zferDGxmonm_Z2I-6VXhae4u8oQiPv0BSGhXpi3y27-tKR-5wxh9NMU62L0Q$ ).

Thanks,
Pierre
