Title:
  please drop build-dependency on g++-4.9

Status in dbus-cpp package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The dbus-cpp package currently has a build-dependency on g++-4.9. This
  build-dependency is present because of the recommendations on
  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/cpp-11 about handling of C++11.

  The C++11 ABI has now stabilized in gcc as of gcc 5; however, before
  we can switch to gcc 5, we first need to be able to do rebuild tests
  of the archive against this compiler.

  To facilitate this, please drop the build-dependency on g++-4.9 from
  the package in wily. 4.9 will remain the default until all transition
  issues have been identified, so there is no risk of accidental ABI
  breakage here anymore.
