Since Xcode-6 is now released on 10.9, this becomes urgent. Otherwise apt and many other packages will no longer build. I disagree, however, with your estimate "It seems that clang 6.0 no longer cares about this". What happened in clang 6 is that we have now arrived in the "future" promised by the "hard-error-in-future" part of the older flag. AFAICT, unused command line flags are now errors and can no longer be downgraded to warnings. This means that the easy way out we chose in xcode-5 is no longer available, and all packages that have those unused command line arguments will need to be fixed. I still hope I am wrong, but some little tests really point in this direction. -- Martin ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Slashdot TV. Video for Nerds.
