Error compiling litecoin clone, boost error

Question

I am trying to clone litecoin for practice and for some reason this time around my build system isn't working right.

Here is the error I am having after trying to compile my clone AND litecoin 8.7.4 source

bitcoinrpc.cpp:984:52:   required from here

Could someone please let me know what this is? I tried an issue and change a line in rpcrawtransaction.cpp

<const CScriptID &> 

to

<CScriptID> 

and also tried code snippet from feathercoin, both unsuccussful.

Would be greatly appreciated if someone could help get my system buildable again.

Nevermind, sorry, I got past that part. I had clang as the compiler from update-alternatives, had to switch back to gcc. Currently compiling right now hopefully no more errors.
