Testing on multiple platforms

[rwanwork]

Despite using CMake for cross-compilation across many compilers and operating systems, the software was only ever tested on Ubuntu (as recently as 20.04).

Testing on other platforms would be appreciated.

If it does not work on a certain platform and it is an "easy fix", then such fixes can be incorporated in. If the fix is difficult, then an update of the main README.md would be sufficient.

I wanted to update this saying it does not work on fedora due to the issues of installing the mpi modules from the boost library, I'm not confident about adding this to the readme as it's come about from my limited knowledge of c++ libraries

I wouldn't worry about it! I think for open source software, it's a bit unreasonable for any developer to support "everything". In my case, I don't have a Fedora/RedHat system to test on. I could build a virtual machine, but honestly, I have other things that are occupying my time (and I think same as you).

Maybe someone else who is a Fedora user can update what's already there -- that's fine. Small incremental improvements is expected...

Thank you for bringing this to my attention! Your suggestions was an improvement to what I had there in the first place. So, don't worry about it!
