+A lifetime cannot be determined in the given situation.
+
+Erroneous code example:
+
+```compile_fail,E0495
+fn transmute_lifetime<'a, 'b, T>(t: &'a (T,)) -> &'b T {
+    match (&t,) { // error!
+        ((u,),) => u,
+    }
+}
+
+let y = Box::new((42,));
+let x = transmute_lifetime(&y);
+```
+
+In this code, you have two ways to solve this issue:
+ 1. Enforce that `'a` lives at least as long as `'b`.
+ 2. Use the same lifetime requirement for both input and output values.
+
+So for the first solution, you can do it by replacing `'a` with `'a: 'b`:
+
+```
+fn transmute_lifetime<'a: 'b, 'b, T>(t: &'a (T,)) -> &'b T {
+    match (&t,) { // ok!
+        ((u,),) => u,
+    }
+}
+```
+
+In the second you can do it by simply removing `'b` so they both use `'a`:
+
+```
+fn transmute_lifetime<'a, T>(t: &'a (T,)) -> &'a T {
+    match (&t,) { // ok!
+        ((u,),) => u,
+    }
+}
+```
