#1779: hwloc-utils fails due to missing hwloc-assemlber (and possibly others)

Currently, make sim-utils fails for me:
{{{
make[1]: *** No rule to make target '/home/knarf/ET_dev/exe/sim/hwloc-
assembler', needed by 'utils'. Stop.
Makefile:870: recipe for target 'sim-utils' failed
}}}
Indeed, I don't have the tool hwloc-assembler installed, although I do
have the hwloc library installed, and it is picked up by the hwloc thorn,
and Cactus succeeds in building the executable. In fact, no binary is
installed with the standard hwloc library package, there is another
package for the utilities. As long as we don't need these utilities I
suggest to not depend on them.
The following patch follows the example of PAPI and only installs known
tools that are actually present in the installation.

We might even think about backporting this change. I would support this,
but would not go ahead without at least one other maintainer approving.
Obviously after testing...

#1780: Correct name of Weinberg pseudotensor in QuasiLocalMeasures

Vassilios Mewes says:
[...] the Landau-Lifshitz quantities implemented in the QLM thorn, are not
actually using the Landau-Lifshitz pseudotensor, but rather the Weinberg's
pseudotensor, which he derived in his book General Relativity, Gravitation
and Cosmology.
I think it would be good to rename them accordingly, as it (at least for
me) caused some confusion when investigating those quantities.

#1637: MoL should automatically allocate storage for sufficient timelevels of
evolved variables
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
Reporter: hinder | Owner:
Type: enhancement | Status: new
Priority: minor | Milestone:
Component: Cactus | Version: development version
Keywords: MoL |
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
The MoL thorn requires that all evolved variables have at least two
timelevels of data, even if the integration method (e.g. RK4) does not
need any past timelevels. It uses one of these timelevels as scratch
space, potentially in addition to any other scratch space variables. In
the case where at least two timelevels are needed for other reasons, this
is more efficient than allocating an extra scratch space variable. Rather
than requiring the evolution thorn to allocate at least two timelevels of
storage for these variables, MoL should ensure sufficient timelevels via
the flesh API.
A related issue is that using timelevels for this purpose is wasteful in
situations where the timelevel is not used for any other purpose, since
the timelevel will be checkpointed even though it is only being used for
temporary storage.

this leads to inlcude dirs of the form NO_BUILD/include which makes no
sense.

#1793: activating 3d output at restart results in unexpected behavior
--------------------------------+-------------------------------------------
Reporter: physik@… | Owner: eschnett
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: unset | Milestone:
Component: Carpet | Version: ET_2014_05
Keywords: |
--------------------------------+-------------------------------------------
Hi,
I've recently switched on 3D carpetIOHDF5 output when restarting from a
checkpoint which was not a multiple of carpetiohdf5::out_every, which in
turn corresponds to a multiple of the coarsest timestep. In the resulting
files, all but the finest levels where missing. I realized that instead of
Carpetiohdf5::out_criterion = divisor
I have used
Carpetiohdf5::out3D_criterion = divisor
A quick grep in the source code resulted in no match for the latter
parameter, it seems completely unused. Thus, Carpet was probably using the
default for
out_criterion, which is "default", which means use IO:out3D_criterion,
which was not set, defaulting to "iteration".
Now, according to this closed issue
https://trac.einsteintoolkit.org/ticket/1053
that should still work as intended. I suppose the problem here is that the
3d output was not activated in previous restarts, so there was no last
output time when restarting, and it outputs every so many iterations after
the checkpoint.
This occurred with the Wheeler release, I have not checked the newest
release yet.
Cheers,
Wolfgang.
