Is fwupd supposed to work with gcc-4.9? The problem is that gcc-5 default C mode is -std=gnu11 instead of -std=gnu89. Perhaps we need to supply CFLAGS=-std=gnu11 to make it work with gcc-4.9? Relevant part of build.log: ... ../fwupd-0.9.5/plugins/unifying/fu-plugin-unifying.c: In function 'fu_plugin_unifying_device_added': ../fwupd-0.9.5/plugins/unifying/fu-plugin-unifying.c:71:2: error: 'for' loop initial declarations are only allowed in C99 or C11 mode for (guint i = 0; i < guids->len; i++) { ^ ../fwupd-0.9.5/plugins/unifying/fu-plugin-unifying.c:71:2: note: use option -std=c99, -std=gnu99, -std=c11 or -std=gnu11 to compile your code ... With -std=gnu11 I'm getting another error, so it is apparently not that simple: ... /fwupd-0.9.5/plugins/amt/fu-plugin-amt.c ../fwupd-0.9.5/plugins/amt/fu-plugin-amt.c:239:52: error: initializer element is not constant 0xac, 0xa8, 0x46, 0xe0, 0xff, 0x65, 0x81, 0x4c); ...
