Background: About a month ago I ran into some issues with a Stan model that I was running using the Rethinking package. I was advised to ensure that I had the latest version of cmdstan & cmdstanr, so I attempted to update these. (cmdstan 2.35 was still the latest version at that time, I believe.) The update process didn’t go smoothly; I got a long series of error/warning messages (quoted below) which generative AI told me is due to my computer using C++20 instead of C++17. Generative AI had me edit the make/local file with the line
CXXFLAGS += -std=c++17
and then rebuild cmdstan. This seemed to work.
Today: When I saw that cmdstan 2.36 was launched, I tried updating to that, and got the same errors/warnings. I tried to implement the same fix as before, adding the line to the make/local file to specify the C++17 standard, but this time it doesn’t seem to work.
The errors/warnings came too quickly for me to copy all of them, but what I did capture seems pretty repetitive; most of the warnings look like snippet 1. Snippet 2 only showed up at the end of the rebuild/install process.

Any help in repairing my installation of cmdstan and/or resolving these issues would be greatly appreciated!
