Replying to [comment:4 hinder]:
It is important that all the build VMs are the same. Yes, we should
update to Ubuntu 16.04, but this needs to be done in a controlled way across all the VMs. We also should check that Cactus works properly on 16.04 (until very recently, it would have failed due to the PETSc problem).
I have run the ET tests on 16.04 (specifically on tesla, which is a machine known to simfactory) and they all pass apart from the failures related to using -ffast-math. (I didn't encounter the PETSc problem as it it disabled in the ET thornlist.)
