I tried having a look at this but kept getting lost in what part of the patch fixed what warnings. e.g. I can not find the casting off_t to float change for -Wbad-function-cast.

I think it would be much better to split these up a bit more. Splitting by error type would be fine for me.

Some of these warnings are quite pedantic and wouldn't really cause
issues, so they might not be desired.

The change in alpm_list_count is backwards in my opinion - the API
should be changed to use unsigned int (or size_t). I didn't want to
change the API though.

I can not see why this ever returned a signed int.
