I want to be very clear that the docker containers we maintain
do NOT have exactly the same environment as the build systems. Maybe a little
closer, but not the same.
We are not attempting to replicate the build environment, just to create an
environment that
is useful to users. In particular, we try and build the docker containers daily
with the latest R-devel, whereas
we do not update R-devel daily on the build systems. There are many other
differences.

OK, thanks for letting us know. Michael, if/when this is addressed can you let
us know?
