Thanks to the reminder from Dan Berrange,
here's a patch to make build output less verbose, by default.
E.g., instead of the redundant multi-line compilation/linking commands,
you'll see something like this by default:
+AM_SILENT_RULES([yes]) # make --enable-silent-rules the default.
I tried this one before but it doesn't work on RHEL 5.3:
aclocal:configure.ac:27: warning: macro `AM_SILENT_RULES' not found in library
libtoolize: `config.guess' exists: use `--force' to overwrite
libtoolize: `config.sub' exists: use `--force' to overwrite
libtoolize: `ltmain.sh' exists: use `--force' to overwrite
aclocal:configure.ac:27: warning: macro `AM_SILENT_RULES' not found in library
configure.ac:27: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_SILENT_RULES
If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
See the Autoconf documentation.
autoreconf: /usr/bin/autoconf failed with exit status: 1
(There was another one I wanted to add to do with colouring
error messages, that also doesn't work on RHEL 5).
