Hi Clément, Regarding the Java, we already skip xcos in the build but we were really hoping that we could start including it with this version.
For the filesystem thingy, I will be patching the source as part of the conda recipe to use <experimental/filesystem> instead and see how it goes - although it would be really nice if we could support more compilers out of the box.
