Sorry for the delay. I just tested most recent master (most recent commit summary below):

commit 44ad42240069d8d82772b0c0ef5ec93c2566ca7e (HEAD -> master, origin/master, origin/HEAD)
Author: Stefan Kangas <stefankangas <at> gmail.com>
Date:   Fri Nov 4 20:26:01 2022 +0100

And I don’t see any warnings anymore -- I am assuming your commit made it in. Thanks for the fix.

Best regards,

Jacob Faibussowitsch
