| Dear Maintainer,
|
| The following program will not compile when using a c++ compiler:
|
| #include <gsl/gsl_filter.h>
You meant
#include <gsl/filter/gsl_filter.h>
| int main()
| {
| }
|
| This gives the following error:
| $ g++ tmp.cpp -o tmp
| In file included from /usr/include/gsl/gsl_filter.h:25:0,
| from tmp.cpp:1:
| /usr/include/gsl/gsl_movstat.h:58:9: error: expected unqualified-id before
‘delete’
| int (*delete) (void * vstate);
| ^~~~~~
| /usr/include/gsl/gsl_movstat.h:58:9: error: expected ‘)’ before ‘delete’
I can confirm that.
| This is due to C++ conflicting with the delete operator in the header. This
should have been fixed upstream [1], but I can't see that this has actually
been pushed to the gsl git repo [2].

| Without this fix it is not possible for a user to use the new filter
functions, unless they manually alter gsl_movstat.h

I do not know what you are trying to suggest here.
You correctly identify this as an _upstream_ issue. Can you please work with
_upstream_ ? It is not something I introduced packaging it.
Please just edit your file locally and press upstream to release a new version.
