The warnings are also present in your log. No idea, how to proceed.
You don't have to do anything else. The maintainer (which I'm not) will
decide if they want to support build from git checkout or not for this
particular package.
(I just downgraded the bug because this category of bugs is not
considered to be release-critical).
I'm not comfortable disabling this part of upstream checks. You might want to
reach them to check if those could be overridden.
What checks do you mean exactly, that would get disabled? Upstream’s
configure explicitly adds `-Wno-format` [1]:
# disable some warnings, whether explicitly enabled above or by default
# these are not compatible with our custom printf specifiers
WARN_CFLAGS="$WARN_CFLAGS -Wno-format"
WARN_CFLAGS="$WARN_CFLAGS -Wno-format-security"
Meanwhile, maybe try to build with a clean tree built from dpkg-source? I
build using git-buildpackage and pbuilder and it does work fine here.
I don’t know these two tools, so can’t say, if they create a dedicated
build environment, so no `.git` directory is there.
Is the analysis missing anything? (In the original report the real
reason, the existence of `.git` directory, was not stated.
Kind regards,
Paul
