This step should not be needed, but there seems to be a related issue in act.

| You can also run GitHub Actions locally with [act](https://github.com/nektos/act). | ||
|
|
||
| List the workflows with `act --list`. To simulate a push event, run `act push`. Some workflows might work on GitHub Actions but not on act, in which case you could try running specific workflows with, for example, `act -j 'build'`. |

In particular, I could run the first tutorial, but not more. It was as if the second solver was not starting.

GitHub-hosted runners with Ubuntu 18.04 are not available anymore, hence we cannot test OpenFOAM 5 and 6 anymore.
Locally, there is a Docker image that is picked:
Start image=catthehacker/ubuntu:act-18.04
but I am later on getting another error:
[Custom build (manual)/build] ⭐ Run Main Check out repository
[Custom build (manual)/build] 🐳 docker cp src=/home/gc/.cache/act/actions-checkout@v4/ dst=/var/run/act/actions/actions-checkout@v4/

I think we will have to live without testing OpenFOAM.org earlier than 7 for now.

Before we can maintain the adapter for different OpenFOAM versions again, we need a system to build the adapter for different versions locally. We already have a CI workflow for that, but it is a bit cumbersome running it always on GitHub.
This PR:
TODO list:
docs/changelog-entries/(create directory if missing)@vidulejs maybe a nice first PR to review and try out the workflow locally. I am looking forward to your comments on what works, what not, and what I could improve.
