Indeed.  A bisection grid manager is not something we should give up.

Sollten wir in den sauren Apfel beißen and fork the thing?

On debian the necessary dependency would be libtirpc-dev (transport-independent RPC lib). It should be available on many architectures. Even on HPC Systems it is provided as manual loadable package. The configuration might need to set additional search paths for this library (and headers), though.
