Package: libmms-dev Version: 0.2-2 Severity: important libmms is a C library, and it's headers are legal C. However, it's been bad form for at least a decade to use reserved C++ keywords in portable public C libraries. The libmms headers have a lot of functions that use parameters named "this", which prevents using the library via the public headers without modification from C++.
A quick sed -e 's/\*this/\*ptr/g' or something similar would be really great. (Also, it's quite common to have an ifdef on __cplusplus and do an automatic extern "C" block, but that's just a niceity, since if it's missing it can be handled on the C++ client code side without modifying the libmms headers.)
