Hi all,
Attached is a screen shot of my attempt to build step-1 on my Eclipse 2019-6 installation. The screen shot should be self explanatory.

Debian Buster os
KDE desktop
amd 7 core Mobo
Dealii 9.1.1 built July 15, 2019

I am still struggling with Eclipse and may have done something stupid there. If more information is needed, please ask.

The error is in eclipse -- it just doesn't understand the code. That happens
all the time: Eclipse is not a compiler, it just does its best trying to
understand what you are doing, but it's not actually very good at it. So it
(i.e., the eclipse editor) sometimes complains -- but that's ok, the only
thing that really matters is that the code *compiles* correctly, not that the
editor understands everything.

Best
W.
