Ah, o.k. - sorry, you're right.

I should have fetched latest source-revision from bzr-trunk, instead of
trying to build cuneiform from source-ver. 0.9.0.

Status in Linux port of Cuneiform: Fix Committed

Bug description:
As already mentioned in an old bug (#362224, comment #16), cuneiform has issues with the CFLAG mentioned above which is used by default with Mandriva's %cmake-macro.

Setting this CFLAG leads in several build-errors ("format not a string literal and no format arguments") and the build breaks.

If I disable this CFLAG the source does compile fine.
But this could also be a security issue then, because this CFLAG is used by default to prevent possible format strings-attacks.
