[T045T]

I'm sorry, but on a fresh, fully updated Xenial VM, I don't get any errors building tf2_web_republisher. That VM does have a different GCC version (5.4) on it, so that might be your issue.

[VictorLamoine]

Agreed, it compiles fine using gcc 5.4 on my machine:
catkin_make -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=/usr/bin/g++-5 -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=/usr/bin/gcc-5

With gcc 6 it seems like the boost function signatures are the problem. Not sure what exactly! What changed?
I'll post again if I find a solution, feel free to help me :)

[T045T]

Looks like the big change is defaulting to --std=c++14, so explicitly forcing it back to --std=gnu++98 might help?
