Tried compiling icub-main v1.14.0 and received the following error during compilation:

Any pointers? Thanks.

Deleting 'mutex(1)' from the initialiser seems to work. Please advise on repercussions?

Hi @dcam0050 hope you're doing well 😄

Thanks for pointing out this compilation bug that we didn't catch with our CI.
skinprototype is a deprecated device so you can safely switch it off at CMake configuration time.

We're also going to patch this in the distro.

[pattacini]

By the way, I assume you're upgrading your own machine and not the robot iCubSheffield01 since it is not eligible for receiving the distro 2019.12.feat-01.

[pattacini]

@dcam0050 we've just produced the tag v1.14.1, which has yielded the distro 2019.12.feat-02.

[dcam0050]

@pattacini sorry for the silence. Can you advise which is the latest distro compatible with iCubSheffield01?
