Hi,
This is some minor question(s) about the installation that I haven't quite 
been able to wrap my head around.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The readme.md file in this folder: /path/to/git/docker/opencog/README.MD 
states:

- 4. Specify a directory for storing ccache's compiler outputs

   ```
   mkdir -p $HOME/path/to/where/you/want/to/save/ccache/output
   export CCACHE_DIR=$HOME/path/to/where/you/want/to/save/ccache/output`
   ```

   Specifying this means, making a clean build of source code after 
removing a
   container will be faster. If you don't want to do this, then comment out 
the
   `- $CCACHE_DIR:/home/opencog/.ccache` in `common.yml` file


I am not sure what this is about. Should I 'mkdir' inside the ubuntu image 
in docker, or in my main OS host ?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Also, the file tells:

## Steps for OpenCog development

__For UNIX like Systems only__

1. Add these lines to `~/.bashrc` at $HOME of your PC and run
   `source ~/.bashrc`.

   ```
   export OPENCOG_SOURCE_DIR=$HOME/path/to/opencog
   export ATOMSPACE_SOURCE_DIR=$HOME/path/to/atomspace
   export COGUTILS_SOURCE_DIR=$HOME/path/to/cogutils
   export OC2MC_SOURCE_DIR=$HOME/path/to/opencog-to-minecraft
   ```

   __Optionally, if you are using `moses` add to `~/.bashrc`,
   `export MOSES_SOURCE_DIR=$HOME/path/to/moses` and uncomment
   `- $MOSES_SOURCE_DIR:/moses` line in the docker-compose.yml file.__


Again, where is opencog/atomspace/... /opencog-to-minecraft installed on my 
PC (or do you mean the Ubuntu image with OpenCog!!) ? I just finished 
building the opencog docker image using *./docker-image.sh -btcp*. Where 
are these folders created in the docker-image? 

Thanks for looking into it. I'm just trying to make sure I understand the 
details of what I did, and what I'm about to do, as I proceed with the 
installation.
