"make" will print the commands it's running, but I was not seriously trying to nitpick, your point was clear. When you run GCC, you expect it to be compiling a C program; when you run Sage, you expect to see a Sage banner. My earlier message was not defending the behavior, only pointing out that spin doesn't solve it. If you are willing to forego the editable install, then meson alone works great. If not, the problem lies one level below spin. Regardless, while there's something to be said for going with the flow of the python ecosystem, it sounds like we should at least make the rebuilds verbose. (And this sounds easy.) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
