 ### Troubleshooting
 
-If you get a linker error like the one below suggesting that you recompile
+#### Conan
+
+If you find trouble building dependencies after changing Conan settings,
+then you should retry after removing the Conan cache:
+
+```
+rm -rf ~/.conan/data
+```
+
+
+#### no std::result_of
+
+If your compiler version is recent enough to have removed `std::result_of` as
+part of C++20, e.g. Apple Clang 15.0,
+then you might need to add a preprocessor definition to your bulid:
+
+```
+conan profile update 'env.CFLAGS="-DBOOST_ASIO_HAS_STD_INVOKE_RESULT"' default
+conan profile update 'env.CXXFLAGS="-DBOOST_ASIO_HAS_STD_INVOKE_RESULT"' default
+conan profile update 'tools.build:cflags+=["-DBOOST_ASIO_HAS_STD_INVOKE_RESULT"]' default
+conan profile update 'tools.build:cxxflags+=["-DBOOST_ASIO_HAS_STD_INVOKE_RESULT"]' default

+```
+
+If you get a linker error like the one above suggesting that you recompile
 Boost with position-independent code, the reason is most likely that Conan
 downloaded a bad binary distribution of the dependency.
 For now, this seems to be a [bug][1] in Conan just for Boost 1.77.0 compiled
 with GCC for Linux.
 The solution is to build the dependency locally by passing `--build boost`
-when calling `conan install`.
