I do think that what I did do, is useful as the upgrade to 1.6.x needs to happen anyway. It's just that I got to a point where the amount of time I needed to put into it *additionally* wasn't worth it (to me) considering the 'additional' benefit: Does the zeroc-ice-compat patch set *compile* (essentially). The problems which prevented compilation of RC1 may already have been fixed. Quite a few commits/fixes have landed in the 1.6.x branch since 'RC', so if another (RC) release is made with those included, it may already succeed. Or if src:soci 4.1.4 was available, which IIUC also fixes several issues. Waiting for either or both seems more useful. FYI: ZeroC Ice 3.8 compatibility has been pushed to 1.7. > *waves* *waves* back
