[Bug releng/10874] New: quiet down "make install"

[fche at redhat dot com]

With plain "make" being so nice and kbuild-quiet-like, it would
be nice to make "make install" just as unverbose.

The automake documentation for silent-rules has an example of how to use this
feature in custom rules:

Reading current fedora-devel traffic on AM_SILENT_RULES, I'm coming around
to not wanting this (and maybe not even for plain "make").

It's certainly possible to turn on verbosity for automated builds, e.g. in the
spec file.  Or if you prefer, we can make it default to verbose and let devs
choose "--enable-silent-rules".  I, for one, much prefer having the cleaner
output...

I am not completely sure I understand the reference in comment #2. Does silent
not just suppress the actual gcc command line if there are no warnings or
errors? If it also suppresses the command line used for commands that do produce
warnings or errors that would be bad, but I thought the warnings and errors
(plus the command that produced them) were visible even when otherwise "silent".
