There is another pressing issue. When I tried to compile OpenCV 3.1.0 from source, it complains that GCC versions later than 4.9 are not supported. The version of GCC that ships with Ubuntu 16.04 is 5.3.1 I think, which is nice. So the fact that OpenCV doesn't support it is a real shame. I desperately need OpenCV 3.x for my work and this is a massive setback.

It would be really good to update to OpenCV 3.1 for a distribution to be released in 2016, as the 2.4 series is getting quite old.
