Hi Gert,

thanks for your gcc-6 fixing effort and the status update.

I'd say there is a "new set" of gcc 6 errors:

#831100 [S|  |  ] [src:conquest-dicom-server] conquest-dicom-server: FTBFS with GCC 6: cpp_type_traits.h:212:12: error: redefinition of 'struct std::__is_integer<unsigned int>'

#831208 [S|  |  ] [src:dindel] dindel: FTBFS with GCC 6: DInDel.hpp:145:229: error: template argument 1 is invalid

These are not on your list and are filed in a later effort - I'm
not sure why they are not tagged properly.

Well, 2.x is not in the archive but Kevin is working on it.

OK.

Thanks for looking into it.

Thanks for looking into it.

I'll apply the fix from upstream and will care for this.

Any volunteer to ask on debian-mentors@lists.debian.org for further
input?

I might try this.

So with the exception of  #811893 swarm-cluster  this looks good for the
"old" set of gcc-6 errors[1] but the new ones seem to be pending.

Any takers?

Kind regards
