I can confirm I had the exact same issue on a Debian GNU/Linux 12 (bookworm) system with cmake version 3.25.1, ninja version 1.11.1, gcc version 12.2.0

I managed to get the main branch to build on a Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS system with cmake version 3.16.3, ninja version 1.10.0, gcc version 9.4.0

Not sure which part of the equation made the difference here but the build finished properly on the Ubuntu host, maybe that helps you in the meantime.

@ibobak, @mawashii, can you please test again with the latest from main? There have been many changes since the commit you referenced from December 1st, including upgrades to zlib, protobuf, and absl, and a change to stop treating warnings as errors in third_party dependencies. My hope is that one of these many changes has resolved the issue. If not, we can try an update to libxml2.

[cosmin]

The change to not treat warning as errors in 3rd party libraries should have resolved this issue.
