No idea what it is or does, so probably no! (Going to look it up now...)

edit; No, don't need that one. I pressume that the configure will need editing to remove the boost::system check, then exclude the plugin from the build?

No editing necessary.
Just tell the configure-script you don't want to build NAssiShneiderman should be enough, e.g.:


--- Code: ---./configure --with-contrib-plugins=all,-NassiShneiderman
--- End code ---

would create the makfiles to build all contrib-plugins except for the NAssiShneidermann-plugin.
The boost-check should not be run in this case.

Thanks, will give that a go.

OS/Distro.  Raspberry Pi running latest Raspbian, a Debian Stretch derivative, uses Kernel 4.14.x running on an Armv7 processor.

Great, that has fixed the build on the Pi and also on my LUbuntu VM (17.10) which was showing a boost::system error during compile rather than during configure. Defo. something screwy with that boost::system stuff.

Thanks.
