@Aniket-Engg Thanks for raising this. Unfortunately updating the Migrations.sol to latest solc would be a breaking change for users running truffle init with earlier versions of truffle. The template for a bare-box project sits here and is strongly decoupled from truffle itself. At present the best work-around is to update that file following the warnings solc provides - there's just a couple things.

We probably need to implement truffle-core 117 to manage this requirement appropriately. Another approach that's been discussed is removing Migrations.sol from bare projects altogether and having truffle manage that feature 'magically' behind the scenes.

@cgewecke ok, I got it. Looks like we can have a permanent solution later in future, till then we can go with the updating file manually.

Latest truffle is putting Migrations.sol with version 0.4.23. Thanks for considering the update.
