Hello,
With kde programs I get these error messages all the time during
compilation:
/usr/include/features.h:148:3: warning: #warning "_BSD_SOURCE and
_SVID_SOURCE are deprecated, use _DEFAULT_SOURCE [-Wcpp]
# warning "_BSD_SOURCE and _SVID_SOURCE are deprecated, use
_DEFAULT_SOURCE"
What is the correct way to get rid of these?
I started to use void in earnest now, and really like it. Below are some
potential improvements.
1. I think it would be good to have this in /etc/profile:
MANPAGER="less -s"
Less is part of the base-system, so this could not hurt.
2. I think adding this to /etc/hosts by default would be also good:
127.0.1.1 <hostname>
For example every time firefox is started it tries to do a DNS lookup for
the hostname.
If it is not configured in /etc/hosts, or in the DNS server, then it will
wait a couple of seconds before it times out. It is annoying, and
it took me some time and an strace to figure out what is happening. I guess
there can be other programs that do this.
Regards

Since these are non-fatal deprecation warnings you should probably just
ignore them.
Otherwise you would need to fix the sources to use _DEFAULT_SOURCE instead
of _BSD_SOURCE or _SVID_SOURCE.
Void uses "more" as a sensible default pager, but if you want to use
another you are of course free to set it to whatever you want. "less" ist
not neccessarily what everyone wants so it is better to use a well-known
and small default that can be easily replaced.
You are right about the hostname. I think it would be reasonable to
automatically add it to /etc/hosts during installation. Then again it's not
terribly difficult to add it yourself :)
