Hi
A short update of the upcoming release:
There are still outstanding issues that prevent going forward with the release (see https://docs.einsteintoolkit.org/et-docs/Release_coordination for current information).
The most important are:
- Some McLachlan testsuites are still failing. Peter wasn't able to find
time to look at it, and won't have for the coming week. We need a volunteer to work on these. This is ticket 1995.
- ExternalLibraries/MPI prevents Cactus from linking if built from the
thorn-sources, on (at least some) Linux systems. The issue is described in ticket 2049.
Note that this has a straightforward work-around -- pass the respective options manually. This short before a release, I recommend going with a work-around instead of modifying Cactus's internal mechanism, which might break things.

- Both SphericalHarmonicReconGen tests fail, for at least apparently
different reasons (but since one is a segfault you never know)
Otherwise, the tests seem to run fine, on the few machines I've tested them on. We obviously need to test a lot more machines, which is also still out-standing.
