Source: glibmm2.4
Version: 2.46.1-1
Severity: serious

glibmm2.4 version 2.46.1-1 started to use C++11 features in the headers
it exports, but pkg-config --cflags doesn't return -std=c++11. Given the
default is still -std=gnu++98 in GCC 5, it causes packages which use
these headers to fails to build.

A build log showing the issue can be found here:

https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=inkscape&arch=mips64el&ver=0.91-5%2Bb1&stamp=1443446208

On IRC the question was raised, if random .pc files should really
contain -std=... ?

the problem is that the new glibmm2.4 now requires c++11, while this package is still used in the old glibmm stack. So the proper solution would be to have your own glibmm package for the old stack, or have a c++98 mode for the new glibmm package. Does everything using the old glibmm stack uses pkg-config? If not you'll have to fix every client package anyway.
