Why not snap?
Are there good reasons to use snap?
Just that there was a similar suggestion to use snap for picongpu made by @ax3l. So the only reason would be consistency.
Thx for the hint. Its a good idea to have a look at snap and compare it to conan.

I suggest everything packaging wise :D
No seriously, I did not know conan and it looks like a good way to ship binaries and code platform independently. Snap is quite canonical specific.
Conan provides a simple solution to resolve dependencies of your C/C++ code. This PR introduces conan into the graybat cmake config file. Up to now only the zmq dependency can be resolved. Available boost packages have no mpi support yet. Providing an own boost package would be the way to go.
