I am trying to build my source using gcc 8.3.0
root@eqx-sjc-engine2-staging:/usr/local/src# gcc --version

I am getting the below error
libs/esl/fs_cli.c:1679:43: error: '%s' directive output may be truncated writing up to 1023 bytes into a region of size 1020 [-Werror=format-truncation=]
snprintf(cmd_str, sizeof(cmd_str), "api %s\nconsole_execute: true\n\n", argv_command);

I tried running the make like below
make -Wno-error=format-truncation
Still I see the same issue.
my linux version is
root@eqx-sjc-engine2-staging:~# cat /etc/os-release
PRETTY_NAME="Debian GNU/Linux buster/sid"
NAME="Debian GNU/Linux"
ID=debian

How to fix it?

Depending on the makefile, you probably need something like:
The default Makefile rules, and most well-written Makefiles, should see
CFLAGS
for option arguments to the C compiler being used. Similarly, you can useCXXFLAGS
for providing options to the C++ compiler, andLDFLAGS
for the linker.
