Client and server builds fail with Clang 19 due to std::char_traits changes

1

Using Clang/LLVM 19 on FreeBSD 15-CURRENT (for testing) and seeing errors building both the UrBackup Server and Client. It appears to be related to changes in Clang 19 for std::char_traits’ base template being removed.

UrBackup Server version 2.5.33
UrBackup Client version 2.5.25.0
Clang / LLVM version 19.1.2

I’ve attached logs for both build attempts. Unfortunately, I don’t have a patch to provide (yet.)

urbackup-server.log (30.2 KB)

Here’s a link to the Clang 19 changes regarding the char_traits base template. I tried linking in the original post but it wouldn’t allow it.
