Looks like this is caused by -Werror=format-nonliteral.
../../../git/glib/glib/gdate.c: In function 'g_date_strftime':
../../../git/glib/glib/gdate.c:2497:7: error: format not a string literal, format string not checked [-Werror=format-nonliteral]
tmplen = strftime (tmpbuf, tmpbufsize, locale_format, &tm);
^~~~~~
Looks like this was fixed in upstream glib. You can patch locally with the following 2 commits until the glib snapshot gets updated.
https://git.gnome.org/browse/glib/commit/glib/gdate.c?id=0817af40e8c74c721c30f6ef482b1f53d12044c7

I'm pretty sure commit 64cbed9 will fix it by backporting the 2 glib patches here. Please let me know if this doesn't work. |

Created attachment 123569 [details] Output from compiler when using gcc 6.1 Hi, I am compiling pkg-config 0.29 as part of Poky distribution. It fails with following error (attached). When gcc is downgraded to 5.3 it compiles without error. This is building pkg-config for native arch (x86_64).
