Maybe a look at recent master commits is worth it https://github.com/ygrek/mldonkey/commits/master

Comment 2 Jesús P Rey (Chuso) 2022-01-15 18:31:39 UTC

Yes, I saw that commit that says "fix build with 4.12", but the commit message also says it still requires unsafe strings, so not really a fix for this issue.

That commit only added two lines, the fix for unsafe string will require many more changes.
