[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#833493: cufflinks: FTBFS with gcc-6

[Graham Inggs]

Hi Andreas

I had a brief look at getting cufflinks to work with the new liblemon
but did not make any progress.

For now, I suggest making the following change (similar to Gianfranco's above).

@@ -67,9 +67,9 @@ namespace lemon {
}

ExceptionMember& operator=(const ExceptionMember& copy) {
-      if (ptr.get() == 0) return;
+      if (ptr.get() == 0) return NULL;
try {
-       if (!copy.valid()) return;
+       if (!copy.valid()) return NULL;
*ptr = copy.get();
} catch (...) {}
}

With this in place, cufflinks builds with GCC 6, and I don't believe
it makes the situation any worse than it was with GCC 5; if those code
paths were followed, the return values would have been undefined
anyway.

Regards
Graham
