Bug#802164: inkscape: FTBFS on hppa since switch to gcc-5

[Alex Valavanis]

Hi Mattia,

Sorry... hit Reply instead of Reply All.  The fix could just be
applied in debian/rules if you don't want to patch the upstream
source.  You should just be able to add CFLAGS+=" -std=c++11", I
guess.  The current release (and all future ones) should already be
compatible with the C++11 standard, although we don't yet require it.

Best wishes,


Alex
