What happened?
When I start emacs I get a bunch of warnings from helm like this:
Warning (comp): helm-lib.el:315:17: Warning: reference to free variable ‘package--initialized’ Disable showing Disable logging
Warning (comp): helm-lib.el:310:17: Warning: reference to free variable ‘package-archive-contents’ Disable showing Disable logging
Warning (comp): helm-lib.el:316:34: Warning: reference to free variable ‘package-alist’ Disable showing Disable logging
Warning (comp): helm-lib.el:1165:46: Warning: the function ‘pos-eol’ is not known to be defined. Disable showing Disable logging

Warning (comp): helm-lib.el:331:26: Warning: the function

Disable logging
All these are not relevant, ignore them, they are protected but the
native compiler doesn't understand this.
Warning (comp): helm-utils.el:601:39: Warning: reference to free
variable ‘helm-mode-find-file-target-alist’ Disable showing Disable
logging
This one is relevant, fixed now, thanks.
Warning (comp): helm-core.el:7237:47: Warning:
‘special-display-buffer-names’ is an obsolete variable (as of 24.3);
use ‘display-buffer-alist’ instead. Disable showing Disable logging
Warning (comp): helm-core.el:7237:23: Warning:
‘special-display-regexps’ is an obsolete variable (as of 24.3); use
‘display-buffer-alist’ instead. Disable showing Disable logging
Warning (comp): helm-core.el:7236:23: Warning:
‘display-buffer-function’ is an obsolete variable (as of 24.3); use
‘display-buffer-alist’ instead. Disable showing Disable logging
These are obsolete function/vars warnings that should not popup but
Unfortunately native compile ignore local vars.
How to reproduce?
I presume it is enough to install helm packages with M-x list-packages and maybe have something in your .emacs file to bytecompile all the installed packages.
Helm Version
Melpa or NonGnuElpa

Relevant backtrace (if possible)
I tried using the minimal configuration script but it doesn't work at all, it fails with:

Don'y know why your Emacs is loading these files.

I don't understand this.
You can use LC_ALL=C to avoid messages in your locale language,
e.g. LC_ALL=C ./emacs-helm.sh
(emacs:91422): Gtk-CRITICAL **: 08:52:29.380: gtk_distribute_natural_allocation: assertion 'extra_space >= 0' failed
(emacs:91422): Gtk-CRITICAL **: 08:52:29.398: gtk_distribute_natural_allocation: assertion 'extra_space >= 0' failed
(emacs:91422): Gtk-CRITICAL **: 08:52:29.413: gtk_distribute_natural_allocation: assertion 'extra_space >= 0' failed
These are related to emacs -Q not Helm script specifically.

I think these are all files from system packages. The first few are from autoconf-2.71-5.fc38.noarch and clang-tools-extra-16.0.6-3.fc38.x86_64.
You can use LC_ALL=C to avoid messages in your locale language,
Here's that:
$ LC_ALL=C .emacs.d/elpa/helm-20231108.1729/emacs-helm.sh
Try instead:
$ LC_ALL=C /home/you/.emacs.d/elpa/helm-20231108.1729/emacs-helm.sh
(source)... find: '.emacs.d/elpa/helm-20231108.1729': No such file or
directory
It was just a non-existent path error which is pretty strange as that does exist:
Yes but I guess find expects a full path to your helm directory.
What you can do is symlinking emacs-helm.sh to e.g. ~/bin/helm and call
helm from your terminal.
You can also cd to your helm directory and call ./emacs-helm.sh.
Otherwise you will have to call emacs-helm.sh with a full path.

Okay calling the script from the folder it is in with I guess this also (almost) confirms that byte compiling helm is what triggers the warnings. |

Okay calling the script from the folder it is in with ./emacs-helm.sh does work. The terminal output no doesn't have any errors but in messages there's:
Unable to activate package ‘helm’.
Required package ‘wfnames-1.1’ is unavailable
Ha! I forgot to update emacs-helm.sh since we use wfnames as dependency,
is the following patch fix this error?
diff --git a/emacs-helm.sh b/emacs-helm.sh

Thanks.
I guess this also (almost) confirms that byte compiling helm is what triggers the warnings.
This is a different issue.
