Hello, guyes, I am working on this bug report[1], and I would like your opinion. this package depends on the tango library which was rebuilt with gcc5 and updated for the libstdc++6 transition.
Now as you can see in the bug report, pytango FTBFS with a missing symbol. and indeed the missing symbol correspond to a c++11 string. I would like to understand why pytango expect old abi string instead of the new c++11 even if during the build -std=cxx01 is given to gcc. For information the files are in fact c++ files. I also tryed with c++11 and I got the same error. So I do not understand what is going on. Is there something special done by distutil when compiling an extension ? is it a problem with gcc (the C compiler) which doesn not use correctly the -std:cxx flag when compiling c++ files ? any help would be appreciate. thanks Frederic [1] https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=797284
