std::result_of was removed in C++20, but we are still using it in multiprocess: https://github.com/chaincodelabs/libmultiprocess/blob/2cbbd09d8b9972a8f5c68b510c0dae9a9f7a22da/include/mp/util.h#L128.

By the looks of it, we can probably remove most of the code in that file, given we now require C++20. cc @ryanofsky.

I confirm this. I installed libmutiprocess manually; I'm not using what's on depends, but it generates the same error.

Moreover, I tried on the current master head (03c5b006) and build fails in more places.

Thanks for the reminder. Will try to implement a fix for this today!

This should be fixed by https://github.com/chaincodelabs/libmultiprocess/pull/91 and #29276.
