I was just looking at this, there is that one:

Result: WARN 
  Found the following significant warnings:
    ./include/xgboost/parameter.h:56:24: warning: template-id not allowed for constructor in C++20 [-Wtemplate-id-cdtor]

But also these using icc:

For {lightgbm}, we received a similar warning from CRAN about template IDs in constructors.

I had success tonight replicating those in CI using the new container images from rhub:

• https://github.com/microsoft/LightGBM/pull/6523
