Bug Description

The unity-scope-mediascanner package currently has a build-dependency on g++-4.9. This build-dependency is present because of the recommendations on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/cpp-11 about handling of C++11.

The C++11 ABI has now stabilized in gcc as of gcc 5; however, before we can switch to gcc 5, we first need to be able to do rebuild tests of the archive against this compiler.

To facilitate this, please drop the build-dependency on g++-4.9 from the package in wily. 4.9 will remain the default until all transition issues have been identified, so there is no risk of accidental ABI breakage here anymore.

raising importance, prevents build using GCC 5, which will become the default at the end of July
