+- Update to version 2.3.6.1:
+  * Once further change to the installation path of cadabra2.so
+    module, to conform to Debian policies.
+  * Fix display of lists containing Ex objects.
+  * Fix import of Jupyter notebooks.
+  * Fix bug related to automatic dummy index relabelling.
+  * Fix tab-completion.
+- Exclude tests that try to write config files to home dir; since
+  the `%ctest` macro does not accept additional options, run ctest
+  manually.
