MATLAB: SPM12 & Matlab: WARNING, Same name of functions.

matlab builtinwarning

Hi!
When I enter Matlab, I get multiple warnings (attached photo). I think I got them when I installed some packages to python. Apparently, some have the same name as other packages in Matlab. I was wondering what's the best thing to do about it.
Thank you!

You have a problem. When you installed SPM12, there was a compatibility directory installed with matlab R2010b compatible functions, and those functions are interfering with your MATLAB R2018b.
You could use pathtool to move /home/zida/SPM/spm12/external/fieldtrip/compat/matlablt2010b to the end of your path, but then there is the risk that spm12 might rely upon functions in those directories being different than what you get in later versions. But you could at least try it.
