Hi Wayne-
This shouldn't affect users, only developers. Once the binary is built,
there are no differences in requirements for running KiCad.
I would only push this to master and not 5.1, so that 5.1.3+ bug fixes
will still build for 14.04 (which was supported when 5.1 was released).

Hey Seth,
Sorry about the delay. I've been wrestling (and loosing) with
restoring
a broken boot manager on my desktop after a bios update stepped all
over
my uefi boot configuration (thank you HP). I would like to hold off on
C++14 for a while. I suspect there are users who prefer running older
linux distros for stability purposes. I would rather not throw those
users under a bus just yet unless we have enough credible evidence that
it wont be an issue. I suppose we could always put it out there and
see
who screams and undo the changes as needed.
Cheers,
Wayne

Hi Devs-
Now that Ubuntu 14.04LTS support has ended, are we building any
platforms that do not support C++14 (gcc prior to version 5)?
If not, can we bump our compiler language support to C++14? This
would
allow us to drop the ban on certain version of GLM as well as our
custom-rolled std::make_unique. There are a few language features
(generalized lambda captures!) that would tighten up quite a bit of
code
if available.
Obviously if we are still supporting a C++11 only system, this should
be
delayed.
Best-
Seth
