I have been spending a few days compiling Scilab 6.1.0 git on my Ubuntu 19.10 arm64 OS running inside a proot container.
After patching for the newer jogl2 packages and getting a few more extra dependencies I have managed to configure and make up to this point:

I have installed the latest Valgrind for my distro, version 1:3.15.0-1ubuntu3.1.
Anyone can enlighten me why it's failing with undefined reference to vgPlain_tl_pre_clo_init? I can't directly access the valgrind main class either. My only guess is either my valgrind is to old or new.
I know scilab 6.0.1 works on ubuntu 20 on arm64 so I dont think its an architecture limitation. Have compiled openfoam, elmerfem, gmsh, getdp, freecad, paraview and su2 no issues, so what am I missing for scilab?
