On debian 11 I have started getting this warnings:

/usr/include/gtk-2.0/gtk/gtktooltips.h:73:3: warning: ‘GTimeVal’ is deprecated: Use 'GDateTime' instead [-Wdeprecated-declarations]

73 | GTimeVal last_popdown;

| ^~~~~~~~

Not sure if it is important and/or should be fixed.

My build commands are:

sudo make distclean

./configure --with-features=huge --enable-python3interp --enable-gui

sudo make install

Yes, see https://github.com/vim/vim/issues/4987

I don't think there is much that we can do here. You may try the
mentioned "patch" there. Or start using the GTK3 gui, since gtk2 is
end-of-life already. Or use -Wno-deprecated-declarations as CFLAG

Best,
Christian

Thx, using --enable-gui=gtk3 is ok
