Andrew, the 3 patches have been reviewed as much as I can do and are fine on Linux so I will check them into GIT when I power up the desktop (hopefully tomorrow).  The new 526 Warning errors are actually due to the Fedora 40 C++ compiler.  Right below is the whole message that I did not provide earlier.

bcwindowbase.h:222:22: warning: ‘virtual void BC_WindowBase::create_objects()’ was hidden [-Woverloaded-virtual=]
  222 |         virtual void create_objects() { return; };
      |                      ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In file included from guicast.h:62:
errorbox.h:35:14: note:   by ‘void ErrorBox::create_objects(const char*)’
   35 |         void create_objects(const char *text);

In file included from bcsubwindow.h:26,
                 from bcbutton.h:26,

How to fix it is explained at the following url and I will test that but if  i have problems, will let you know!

As previously mentioned this is a backup laptop where I finally installed Fedora 40, which is fedora's latest release.  Tomorrow I will boot my regular laptop and build there.  Python version on Fedora 40 is 3.12.7.

Mmm, while I dislike new, improved breakage from all-new into-your-face software ideology ,  what Fedora does usually filters down to other distros, so we better to know exact error.

Take your time ...

Andrew, building on my backup laptop (instead of my standard), I have 525 new error messages in the log file like:

/mnt0_new/cin5/cinelerra-5.1/plugins/../guicast/errorbox.h:35:14: note:   by ‘void ErrorBox::create_objects(const char*)’

This is quite concerning but I have not actually reviewed the 3 patches yet, but assume it is the guicast one.

patch for guicast/Makefile was adding python3.12 (something pkgin added as dependency while I fetched usual suspects like inkscape, gimp, okular ...)

What OS/compiler you have on this laptop?

line 35 in guicast/errorbox.h is just

void create_objects(const char *text);

unchanged by me ....

I still need to set

Can you check them by building on Linux? :)
