Sorry, 

I have had now the time to dig deeper in our code and realized that we actually use rmana, i.e. WITH ROOT. If there is an easy way to incorporate the necessary parts temporarily to our side, we will do it. Without ROOT this would have been quite easy, with ROOT, I am not that sure. Anyhow, as said the timeline for this is only until end of 2026.
