Comment (by Roland Haas):

Note that when updating the OptionList you often have to build (once) with --reconfig to make sure setting are correctly or even (dependency tracking gets fuzzy with options) have to do a

touch arrangements/ExternalLibraries/openPMD/*.ccl arrangements/ExternalLibraries/openPMD/src/*

to trigger options being correctly transferred to make.OPENPMD_API.defn.
