Public bug reported:
Midori fails to build from source with vala 0.36 which is generally
included with GNOME 3.24.
Ubuntu 17.10 Alpha recently got vala 0.36.
One error was this:
/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/extensions/apps.vala:268.47-268.50: error: Argument 1: Cannot
pass value to reference or output parameter
store.remove (iter);
^^^^
Compilation failed: 1 error(s), 0 warning(s)
I believe that particular error can be fixed by using "ref iter" instead
of "iter" but that won't work with older versions of vala. There are a
lot of iters used in the code.
rev. 7159 in the bazaar branch lp:midori fixes another problem.
