Thanks Andrea. I downloaded the tarball and compiling from it worked. Homero On Thu, Sep 14, 2017 at 9:20 AM, Andrea Bolognani <abologna@redhat.com> wrote:

Anyone have any suggestion on how to do so?

As a quick workaround, you can either pass

--disable-werror

to configure/autogen.sh or (better) compile from a release tarball rather than a git clone.

In the long run, someone with access to macOS will have to fix the issue and post a patch on the development mailing list.
