>Recent libucommon fails to build with libgnutls.
When I tried it I got a failure on a conversion from an integer to an
enum, C allows this while C++ does not according to the standard.
However there is a command line option -fpermissive which makes g++
allow this. Putting -fpermissive in CXXFLAGS allowed me to build the
package with gnutls 26. Debiff attached.
And I believe that means you either need to figure out how to get
ucommon to build with gnutls26 either by patching it or reverting back
to a version that does build with gnutls26.
Another possibility is to ask why libucommon-dev needs a dependency
on libgnutls*-dev in the first place. In particular is it actually
needed for the shared library or only for the static library.
If it is only needed for the static library a possible soloution
is to split libucommon-dev into two packages, libucommon-dev and
libucommon-dynamic-dev.
Libucommon-dev would contain the static libraries while
libucommon-dynamic-dev would contain the headers and the shared
library symlink, the former would depend on the latter.
Sflphone and any other reverse dependencies in the same situation
could then be modified to use libucommon-dynamic-dev.
