[parted-devel] AM_SILENT_RULES in configure.ac

Hey list.

My `./bootstrap ; ./configure --enable-selinux --enable-device-mapper; make`
was not working properly because of AM_SILENT_RULES in configure.ac.  I
visited this issue again today and I found out why.

In bootstrap.config we check for automake 1.10b.  Thing is that that
version of auto make does not have the AM_SILENT_RULES added to it.  I
propose we commit that line in the configure.ac for the time being and
bring it in once the next release of automake is done.

To further make my point pls go to the git automake tree and look at
these two commits:

2c74a34058ecf5f0c07c3f0908a13613d465f956 -> the AM_SILENT_RULES addition.
dd363d928af3723f9817f578526b9120f2b74037 -> the 1.10b version tag.

I'll post a patch shortly for this issue.

comments appreciated.

Regards.
