1. '-Wdeprecated-copy' As specified in C++11 [1], "the generation of the implicitly-defined copy constructor is deprecated if T has a user-defined destructor or user-defined copy assignment operator". The rationale behind is the well-known Rule of Three [2].
Introduced since gcc-9 [3] and clang-10 [4], flag '-Wdeprecated-copy' warns about the C++11 deprecation of implicitly declared copy constructor and assignment operator if one of them is user-provided. Defining an explicit copy constructor would suppress this warning. The main reason why debug build with gcc-9 or higher succeeds lies in the inconsistent warning behaviors between gcc and clang. See the reduced code example [5]. We suspect it might be return value optimization/copy elision [6] that drives gcc not to declare implicit copy constructor for this case. Note that flag '-Wdeprecated' in clang-8 and clang-9 would also raise warnings for deprecated defintions of copy constructors. However, '-Wdeprecated' is not enabled by '-Wall' or '-Wextra'. Hence, clang-8 and clang-9 are not affected. 2. '-Wimplicit-int-float-conversion' Making the conversion explicit would fix it. Flag '-Wimplicit-int-float-conversion' is first introduced in clang-10. Therefore clang-8 and clang-9 are not affected. The flag with similar functionality in gcc is '-Wfloat-conversion', but it is not enabled by '-Wall' or '-Wextra'. That's why this warning does not apprear when building with gcc.
