setup gdb and setup valgrind get you much more modern versions of these tools than you get from the base OS, versions that actually work. We should give these to users by default, but it's not quite clear to me where to put this, since they can't strictly be said to be dependencies of any of our packages.

Maybe just have a sample setup script in a tools directory that has some examples? Don't think we should add a dependency of course.

Just as a data point, I spent 20mins yesterday trying to figure out how to setup samweb. So I definitely think we need to try and make a one stop place to setup some reasonable software. I don't know if we can just include it in, say, setup_sbnd.sh. It can be a total pain at the moment.
