We got away with this because GCC 4.8 (and apparently every GCC prior to 9) didn't notice or care, and because there is nothing referenced inside the lambda function body that isn't accessible from any other kind of function body (i.e. the capture wasn't needed at all). GCC 9 now enforces what the C++ standard said all along: there is no need to allow capture-default in this case, so it is not. Fix by removing the offending capture-default.

BEES
Best-Effort Extent-Same, a btrfs deduplication agent.
About bees
bees is a block-oriented userspace deduplication agent designed for large btrfs filesystems. It is an offline dedupe combined with an incremental data scan capability to minimize time data spends on disk from write to dedupe.
Strengths
- Space-efficient hash table and matching algorithms - can use as little as 1 GB hash table per 10 TB unique data (0.1GB/TB)
- Daemon incrementally dedupes new data using btrfs tree search
- Works with btrfs compression - dedupe any combination of compressed and uncompressed files
- NEW Works around
btrfs sendproblems with dedupe and incremental parent shapshots - Works around btrfs filesystem structure to free more disk space
- Persistent hash table for rapid restart after shutdown
- Whole-filesystem dedupe - including snapshots
- Constant hash table size - no increased RAM usage if data set becomes larger
- Works on live data - no scheduled downtime required
- Automatic self-throttling based on system load
Weaknesses
- Whole-filesystem dedupe - has no include/exclude filters, does not accept file lists
- Requires root privilege (or
CAP_SYS_ADMIN) - First run may require temporary disk space for extent reorganization
- First run may increase metadata space usage if many snapshots exist
- Constant hash table size - no decreased RAM usage if data set becomes smaller
- btrfs only
