我有一个几年前创建的第三方代码（库），因此与最新的Boost无关。我正在使用Boost 1.64，并且正在尝试编译软件包。
我正在使用catkin和ROS（它们是机器人软件）来编译代码，但是错误似乎与C ++和Boost有关。
说实话，代码是别人写的，而不是我自己写的，所以我无法真正理解为什么失败和在哪里。我知道这段代码并不是为Boost 1.64写的，并且至少与Boost 1.54兼容。现在，我强迫catkin_make（在场景下使用cmake的漂亮工具）使用我自己的Boost版本（在/home/john/local/boost_1_64_0下）会产生以下错误。
错误如下：

上面的代码超出了我的C ++知识，我无法真正看到错误的出处，但是，此软件包对于构建至关重要，因为它在我的代码中用作第三方库。
