I was indeed AFK and will be a for few more hours.

I'll take a look at the code later, but the problem is that when c++11
is enabled (with g++5 the default I think), then std::auto_ptr is
deprecated, hence there is a warning. But since someone decided to add
the -Werror=deprecated-declarations compile flag this warning is
propagated to an error. 

One fix is to remove the compile flag, another one replace
std::auto_ptr with std::unique_ptr. 

Best, 
Gert
