Re: [GNU Octave] [PM] Compatibility of rapidjson with newer versions of GCC

[Rafael Laboissière <rafael@debian.org>]

[N.B.: I am sending this message again, this time to Markus' correct email 
address. I apologize for the duplicate.]

Hi Markus,

The Octave and Octave-related packages in Debian are maintained 
collectively in the realm of the Debian Octave Group. 
I am replying to this message using the appropriate Cc:.

IIUC, you are requesting to patch some upstream changes into the Debian 
package for rapidjson. I think that it is more appropriate to address 
this request to the maintainer of the rapidjson package, Alexander 
Gerasiov, who is also added to the Cc: list of this message.

Best,

Rafael Laboissière

> Octave uses the header-only library "rapidjson" for its interface to json files. "rapidjson" is still being actively developed. But it hasn't seen a new release in a long time. That lead to the situation that more and more parts of the latest release version of rapidjson are no longer compatible with newer versions of GCC.
