From: Darrick J. Wong <darrick.wong@xxxxxxxxxx> The top level Makefile does some processing to set build environment variables (Q and CHECK_CMD). debian/rules uses -C to build subdirs directly, which bypases this feature of the top-level makefile, which causes more build spew than necessary (because Q never gets set to quiet the build). Since the top level makefile can be used to build the subdirs debian/rules cares about, drop the -C and build subdirs via the top level Makefile to quiet the build. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.
