Bug 275863: multimedia/vlc: option CHROMECAST requires USE_CXXSTD=c++17
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=275863



--- Description ---
I'm using FreeBSD 13.2-RELEASE-p9/amd64. Building multimedia/vlc
(vlc-3.0.20_1,4) failed for me. I have enabled a bunch of nonstandard OPTIONS.
I'm sorry I didn't save my error log but I can tell you it included lots of
"error: no member named 'in_place'" which seemed to stem from header files
installed by devel/abseil (abseil-20230125.3) pulled in by files in $WRKSRC
with names indicating functionality enabled by the port's CHROMECAST option.

I added USE_CXXSTD=c++17 to my make command line and then all was well.

Hopefully this helps someone. If further information is needed I'll be happy to
elaborate.
