I don't know if Firefox depends on any other C++11 libraries so it might not be the example I'm looking for. Another for-instance question: Ubuntu 15.04 (Vidid Vervet), which I'm running here, has g++ 4.9.2 and its glibmm/gtkmm are built without --std=c++11. If SomeAppOrOther depended on gtkmm as it is now, could its Ubuntu package be safely built with or without --std=c++11? -- Murray Cumming [email protected] www.murrayc.com _______________________________________________ gtkmm-list mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtkmm-list
