Hi, I'm on Ubuntu 18.10 and I've successfully installed nest to `/usr`.
I'm interested in writing my own synapse models and found these instructions for
getting started: https://nest.github.io/nest-simulator/extension_modules
The configuration step, `cmake -Dwith-nest=/usr/bin/nest-config ../MyModule` works fine.
However, when I ran `make` I received the following compiler error:
```
~/Projects/NEST/MyModule/mymodule.cpp: In member function ‘virtual void
mynest::MyModule::init(SLIInterpreter*)’:
~/Projects/NEST/MyModule/mymodule.cpp:128:24: error: no matching function for call to
‘nest::ModelManager::register_connection_model<mynest::DropOddSpikeConnection<nest::TargetIdentifierPtrRport>
>(const char [17])’
"drop_odd_synapse" );

I am not sure how to deal with this, and any help would be appreciated. Thank you!
