Nightly builds for Ubuntu Bionic overdue

Since December 10 no newer kicad-nightly package has been available for Ubuntu 18.04. Obviously there have been build errors since then. Does anyone know the reason?

Today I’m attempting to configure my new PC with Linux Mint.
A “Default” install of KiCad got met V5.0.something I think.

After adding a new repository I got KiCad V6.0 for the “stable”.

KiCad-nightly does not seem to install at all at the moment.

At the moment KiCad developers are busy with finalizing V6.0, which also means that some stuff in the repository for KiCad-nighty has to change. Just be a bit patient, and give it a week or so before you start “complaining”.

If you’re capable and willing to help with getting the new repositories in working order, your help is of course appreciated earlier :slight_smile:

Looking at the build log there are a few errors which are causing the failures.

c++: error: unrecognized command line option '-Wmismatched-tags'

c++: error: unrecognized command line option '-Wimplicit-int-float-conversion'; did you mean '-Wno-float-conversion'?

c++: error: unrecognized command line option '-Winconsistent-missing-override'; did you mean '-Wno-suggest-override'?
