Unable to build on Ubuntu 18.04 for 6.0 branch

 

Hi,

As I see, since one of those commits:
891c919c239223ef601284a8f166d0f229f6b030
0ea7dabc1271dbc77b8d5764e4eecbeba85903d6

KiCad is unable to build on Ubuntu 18.04. I guess it's a boost version
issue (Boost is 1.65.1 on Ubuntu 18.04).
The build error:
kicad/common/kiid.cpp:50:73:   required from here
/usr/include/boost/random/detail/seed_impl.hpp:269:9: error: ‘class
boost::uuids::detail::seed_rng’ has no member named ‘generate’
     seq.generate(&storage[0], &storage[0] + ((w+31)/32) * n);
     ~~~~^~~~~~~~


You can take a look as the build output at

(large log, error message near the end ;)


Is this version of Ubuntu is still supported for 6.0 branch ? (for me
yes since the Ubuntu support is up to April 2023)...
Note that it affect version 6.0.5 (6.0.4 was built correctly)
