Actually looking at this more, while waf does support the GNU autoconf options by loading gnu_dirs.py (and Samba does this), it actually doesn't support --disable-dependency-tracking. That bit lives in buildtools/wafsamba/wscript. So I think it makes sense to patch samba's wscript to also support --disable-silent-rules for now. It may make sense to also have an automake_compat.py in upstream waf which does something with the configure options shipped with Automake (which are currently dependency-tracking, maintainer-mode, multilib, and silent-rules)...and while we're in here an option to ignore unknown options =) I filed http://code.google.com/p/waf/issues/detail?id=1023 -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
