Looks like there is a header missing for deal.II 9.6. I dont really understand the errors for 9.7. Something in the particle property manager?

See above:
...with the exception of one place that creates a plugin and where apparently one now needs to know the declaration of class Simulator to check a static assertion in class ObserverPointer (namely: Is Simulator really derived from EnableObserverPointer?)

Right now, it stores a bare pointer. This is easily changed with the exception of one place that creates a plugin and where apparently one now needs to know the declaration of
class Simulatorto check a static assertion inclass ObserverPointer(namely: IsSimulatorreally derived fromEnableObserverPointer?).This isn't going to solve the memory issue we talked about in the call today, but it's still worthwhile replacing bare pointers by smarter classes that help us track memory stuff. Let's see if anything breaks with this patch.
