Hello Carsten,
First many thanks for your previous email (I will answer in detail when
I am back home on Monday).
The gcc (or g++) guys are tightening up the "rules" on C++ code and are
generating more and more warning messages such as the following. They
are annoying, but if they are just warnings about depreciated
conversions, they are harmless. As soon as I see them, I fix them.
I am not currently seeing them quite possibly because you may be using
g++ 6.0 or greater. That version of C++ has quite a few bugs that we
have tried working around, but because the developer have a perverted
sense of how to create good software, they addb changes (bugs) that
break a lot of existing software. Consequently, I cannot guarantee that
any Bacula compiled on g++ >= 6.0 works. To be sure run the regression
tests prior to releasing.
Best regards,
Kern
