Hello Benjamin, your patch "enable gcc format-security check" (9b7741c) not only added -Wformat-security, but also changed fstack-protector to fstack-protector-strong. Was this change intentional? It is not mentioned in the commit log and seems to require a recent gcc: cc: error: unrecognized command line option ‘-fstack-protector-strong’ with gcc version 4.8.2 20140324 [gcc-4_8-branch revision 208789] (SUSE Linux) Sebastian -- dm-devel mailing list dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
