Yes, that is true. You may request additional warnings with the make VERBOSE=1 command. > There's no intention of stopping make showing errors. Actually, a literal reading of the policy -- which is how I always try to read policies -- states that there *is* an intention of not showing gcc errors. It is possible that we are talking about different things, though. http://lilypond.org/~graham/gop/gop_5.html - we will still display errors from the make(1) program. (first point under "proposal details") - will will ***NOT*** display any errors from g++. (second point) - exception: we ***MIGHT*** display some portion(s) of the relevant log file(s). The policy uses the word "might" here, not "must". There is a huge difference between those two words. Please always remember that there is a difference between the make(1) program, and other programs which are called by make(1). ... if we are still this unclear about precisely what the policy states, then I think I'd better make a new draft of GOP-PROP 5: build system output, send it here, and wait a few days for more questions. In particular, I will clarify the distinction between make(1) and other programs. Are other parts of the document unclear? I'll ask again when I post the new draft, but if anybody knows of a different area of confusion, it would be great if I could clarify that in the same draft.
