Bug#845742: yade: FTBFS (error: unable to find numeric literal operator)

[Santiago Vila]

Package: src:yade
Version: 2016.06a-5
Severity: serious

Dear maintainer:

I tried to build this package in stretch with "dpkg-buildpackage -A"
(which is what the "Arch: all" autobuilder would do to build it)
but it failed:

If this is really a bug in one of the build-depends, please use reassign and affects,
so that this is still visible in the page for this package.

Thanks.
