Re: Make errors in Debian 11 Bullseye

[Jean-Noël Grad]

Dear Matthew Wyneken,

Boost 1.74.0 was released in Debian and Ubuntu with a regression. You 
can find more details and a patch for ESPResSo in our installation FAQ:
https://github.com/espressomd/espresso/wiki/Installation-FAQ#Compiler_error_with_boostoptional

Best regards,
JN
