Currently, configure.py prints output to STDERR, even though they are not necessarily warnings or errors.
The attached patch changes it to print to STDOUT. Without the patch, a command like the following: python3 -tt /home/scott/lyxbuilds/master-master/repo/lib/configure.py > /dev/null even though it redirects STDOUT, would still print to the terminal: +Running LyX configure with Python 3.12.3 checking for a Latex2e program... +checking for "latex"... yes checking for pLaTeX, the Japanese LaTeX... +checking for "uplatex"... yes checking for a java interpreter... +checking for "java"... yes checking for a perl interpreter... +checking for "perl"... yes checking for xsltproc... +checking for "xsltproc"... yes checking for a Tgif viewer and editor... +checking for "tgif"... no checking for a FIG viewer and editor... +checking for "xfig"... no +checking for "jfig3-itext.jar"... no +checking for "jfig3.jar"... no checking for a Dia viewer and editor... +checking for "dia"... yes ... Is the patch OK? Scott
