Comment (by SimonKing):

 I created the [http://users.minet.uni-
 jena.de/cohomology/p_group_cohomology-2.1.5.spkg current version 2.1.5] on
 my laptop and tested on the computer in my office. Most tests passed.
 Problems:

 - It seems that since a while, web access during doctests is not possible.
 It used to work, and the failing tests do work in interactive sessions. No
 idea how that could be fixed; I guess it was caused by a change in the
 doctest framework.

 - There have still been deprecation warnings when unpickling old pickled
 cohomology rings. Whether or not we will see the deprecation warning
 depends on the user: If (s)he has old pickles, then the tests will fail.
 If (s)he removes the old pickles before re-installing the package, then
 the tests will work.

 - There has been one error where a different homogeneous system of
 parameters was found. Mathematically there is no substantial difference,
 but it may be needed to change the expected output.
