Description Vincent Untz 2009-01-21 13:01:35 UTC 
I just got a patch because someone compiled gnome-panel with -Werror=format-security. Sounds like something we should put in gnome-common

Also, I'm wondering about http://mces.blogspot.com/2008/12/year-end-cleaning-ie-on-warning-options.html

I'm pretty sure we'd want at least some of them too. I don't want to file an individual bug for each of them, though.
Comment 1 Christian Persch 2009-01-21 17:02:44 UTC 
We can add these to the WARN_CFLAGS that are enabled with --enable-compile-warnings from GNOME_COMPILE_WARNINGS macro.
Comment 2 Vincent Untz 2009-01-21 17:04:46 UTC 
Sorry, yeah, that was what I wanted to suggest :-)
