--- Comment #2 from Zaak Beekman <ibeek...@paratools.com> ---
1) Yes, it runs craycnl (Cray compute node Linux) which is likely REHL
based but I don’t recal at the moment and am not at my computer

2) I know a lot of KDE was accessible through homebrew but they’ve been
pruning formulae and consolidating everything into homebrew-core. My quick
search didn’t turn anything up, but I only tried “kde” so perhaps I should
have been looking for individual components.

2.1) Yeah I suspected that was the case, but thought I’d ask anyway.

Thanks for the info and thanks for adding a link to the mailing list.
Please feel free to close this issue.
