Description
In dgfparserblocks.hh, there is an implicitly extern definition of
std::ostream &operator<< ( std::ostream &out, const PeriodicFaceTransformationBlock::AffineTransformation &trafo )
This definition must either be made static or moved to dgfparserblocks.cc. The current situation leads to multiple definitions of this operator if the header is used by more than one compilation unit. (Actually, the header cannot be used at all, since one definition of the operator will go to libdgfparser.)
