#2753: Add CarpetX thorns to Einstein Toolkit manifest

Reporter: Erik Schnetter Status: new Milestone: Version: Type: proposal Priority: major Component: Other

Comment (by Roland Haas):

We have a list of tested compilers on [https://github.com/eschnett/CarpetX/wiki/CompilerCompatibility%5D(https://gi...) so we could for now add the thornlist to master to see what (not if, we know something will) breaks and then get started fixing things. gcc-9 is the earliest gcc compiler that was found to work which is newer than the current minimum of gcc-6 (for C++11), so we may have to scout out which OS / distros / package manager provide older gcc by default (or disable-thorns the CarpetX thorns in generic.ini which is opaque to users usually).
