Just to add a bit more context (since I think the title is a bit misleading), the issue happens when building a library with any .dev.cc files. Currently, the Alpaka libraries that are built only compile .cc files, which is why this issue hasn't come up before.

Thanks, I updated the title.

@smuzaffar, do you know if this fix entered CMSSW_14_1_0_pre2 or only afterwards ?
What about CMSSW_14_0_4 ?

[smuzaffar]

@fwyzard
CMSSW_14_1_0_pre2: No, fix was merged after pre2
CMSSW_14_0_4 : Yes, fix is part of this release

[fwyzard]

OK, thanks.
