How to compile without warnings being treated as errors?
Sure, find where -Werror is set and remove that flag. Then warnings will be only warnings.
You can make all warnings being treated as such using -Wno-error. You can make specific warnings being treated as such by using -Wno-error=<warning name> where <warning name> is the name of the warning you don't want treated as an error.
If you want to entirely disable all warnings, use -w (not recommended).
