If it looks trivial, just ignore it :-) One problem with that is that leaving trivial/irrelevant/incorrect warnings makes it easier to miss important warnings. That being said, I fully agree that one should resist the urge to just get rid of warnings in whatever way. (I tend to cringe whenever a commit log says something along the lines of "fix warning" â a change either fixes a problem which was pointed out by the warning, or it just silences the warning.) -- Earthling Michel Dänzer | http://www.amd.com Libre software enthusiast | Mesa and X developer
