Hi,
I’m using silent rules with automake and I can silence make check by using
autoreconf -i
./configure --quiet
make check --quiet
But when I run make distcheck --quiet, I get the full configure output
and $(AM_V_P) seems to not be set in the Makefile.
autoreconf -i
make distcheck --quiet
Can I silence this?
Yes, I think so. Any additional options to be added to a subordinate
distcheck configure may be supplied via the DISTCHECK_CONFIGURE_FLAGS
Makefile variable. For my own project, I pass from configure.ac to
the subordinate Makefile.am by using this code. Note that this
example is only for "environment" settings but it should be easy
enough to update it to pass --quiet.
in configure.ac:
#
# Save initial user-tunable values
#
LIBS_USER=$LIBS
for var in CC CFLAGS CPPFLAGS CXX CXXCPP LDFLAGS LIBS ; do
eval isset=\${$var+set}
if test "$isset" = 'set' ; then
eval val=$`echo $var`
DISTCHECK_CONFIG_FLAGS="${DISTCHECK_CONFIG_FLAGS}'${var}=${val}' "
fi
done
AC_SUBST(DISTCHECK_CONFIG_FLAGS)
in Makefile.am:
# Options to pass when running configure in the distcheck target.
#
# We want to preserve user-provided option variables so the same
# compiler, headers, and libraries are used as for a normal build.
DISTCHECK_CONFIGURE_FLAGS=$(DISTCHECK_CONFIG_FLAGS)
