It means that either: - - someone answers your question with a way to shut up the Solaris shell, and we then teach autoconf 2.66 how to write all configure scripts to use that magic or - - we teach autoconf 2.66 how to write all configure scripts to avoid the Solaris shell as buggy because it is too chatty It also means: - - since you probably don't want to wait for autoconf 2.66 to become the norm for all existing generated configure scripts, you need to use: CONFIG_SHELL=/path/to/non-chatty/sh /path/to/non-chatty/sh ./configure as a workaround. - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
