Debian 10 build warnings:

i tried to build GNUnet on debian 10, and i got some warnings (i dont 
know if they are bad or not but thought about sharing that with you):

### Compile and Install


$ make -j$(nproc || echo -n 1)



digestauth.c:483:9: warning: ‘strncpy’ specified bound depends on the 
length of the source argument [-Wstringop-overflow=]
         strncpy (dest,
         ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~
                  q1,

                  size);
                  ~~~~~

### Option 1: GNUnet for testing / usage

$ make -j$(nproc || echo -n 1)

[-Wunused-function]

$ sudo make install

### In Addition: gnunet-gtk

user@host:~/gnunet_installation/gnunet-gtk$ make -j$(nproc || echo -n 1)

make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.

----------------------------------------------------------

Wiki Enhancements:

- Section "Requirements" instead of adding / / / for each new packages 
section , why not adding all of them into single shot like this:

sudo apt install git libtool autoconf autopoint build-essential 
libgcrypt-dev libidn11-dev zlib1g-dev libunistring-dev libglpk-dev 
miniupnpc libextractor-dev libjansson-dev libcurl4-gnutls-dev gnutls-bin 
libsqlite3-dev openssl libnss3-tools libopus-dev libpulse-dev libogg-dev

- Section "Compile and Install"

$ sudo apt install libgnutls28-dev <- Why not adding this package to 
Section "Requirements" ?


- Section "In Addition: gnunet-gtk"

 $ sudo apt install libgtk-3-dev libgladeui-dev libunique-dev 
libqrencode-dev $ cd ~/gnunet_installation/gnunet-gtk


^^^ Typo mistake, it should be like this:

 $ sudo apt install libgtk-3-dev libgladeui-dev libunique-dev 
libqrencode-dev
$ cd ~/gnunet_installation/gnunet-gtk

----------------------------------------------------------

Questions:

- What do you think about having Appimage for GNUnet to work on every 
GNU/Linux system without the need to install anything?

https://appimage.org

- What do you think about Rust programming language rather than using C?
