Bug 539320 – sys-libs/gpm fails to compile with format-security

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Agostino Sarubbo 2015-02-08 09:33:06 UTC]

This is an auto-filled bug because this package fails to compile with format-security. To reproduce use CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS -Werror=format-security.

Other distros (like Fedora/Debian) build with format-security, so you could find patch(es) in their repository.
