Re: Why is -Wno-deprecated-declarations defined
The commit that did it is this one from 2014:
https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/commit/a3211b2b9e57a36c79f4ba2b00d0ac1aa30dceb3,
but the log is literally just: "disable deprecation warnings in Debug
build, change message in fp_lib_table.cpp," so I don't know what the actual
reasoning behind the change was.
