Hi!

I'm not able to reproduce this since I'm on 10.1.0 of gcc right now. If you remove the -Werror flag from the Makefile it should at least compile for you.

I could probably fix this by just adding "%s" as the second argument to sprintf as well in src/resource.c. Could you see if that fixes it for you?
