error: cannot use 'typeid' with '-fno-rtti' when building on Debian 11

After recent Debian 11 updates manticoresearch 5.0.3 compilation failed with error...

Please use our building CI Docker as described here https://manual.manticoresearch.com/dev/Installation/Compiling_from_sources#Building-using-CI-docker as it includes everything needed for building.

I've just tested and it builds Debian 11 packages fine:

I'm closing the issue. Feel free to reopen in case the above fails for you.

For those that prefer using stock Debian tools for building manticoresearch - problem does not occur after:

(a)
patching /usr/include/boost/asio/execution/any_executor.hpp from Debian 11 stock libboost1.74-dev with solution described on

chriskohlhoff/asio#541
https://github.com/chriskohlhoff/asio/commit/e8b0445e9837e232047173ddf6b4d541b1585915.diff

and adding -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS='-DASIO_NO_TYPEID=1' to the first execution of cmake when building manticoresearch

or

(b)
removing $<${ONLYGNUCLANGCXX}:-fno-rtti> from line

target_compile_options ( lextra INTERFACE $<${ONLYGNUCLANGCXX}:-fno-rtti>$<${MSCXX}:/GR-> ) # no rtti

in manticoresearch/CMakeLists.txt before building manticoresearch.
