I don't think that's the best way forward. Since this is security-relevant I think we should rather fix the problem than ignoring the errors. And I remember that in some previous mass fix campaign in Debian we already fixed quite a few "-Werror=format-security" issues. Please note that dpkg-buildflags sets "-Werror=format-security" by default: % dpkg-buildflags CFLAGS=-g -O2 -fstack-protector-strong -Wformat -Werror=format-security [..] Cheers, gregor -- .''`.
