From 6ae3d6425dff2dcc5bdb61a2c512508b0a066551 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mohammad Akhlaghi Date: Mon, 29 Jul 2019 03:11:43 +0100 Subject: Tip added at initial configuration notice on how to see progress The configuration step (building all the ncessary software) can take some time. It is natual for the user to want to see how the build is going (which software is being built at every moment). So far, we have only put a "Inspecting status" section in `README-hacking.md' that describes a solution, but some early users may not have read it yet. With this commit a short tip was added in the initial installation notice to inform the user of this very useful command. --- reproduce/software/bash/configure.sh | 10 ++++++++++ 1 file changed, 10 insertions(+) (limited to 'reproduce/software') diff --git a/reproduce/software/bash/configure.sh b/reproduce/software/bash/configure.sh index 65b728e..d03b444 100755 --- a/reproduce/software/bash/configure.sh +++ b/reproduce/software/bash/configure.sh @@ -767,6 +767,16 @@ will be installed in: $sdir/installed +**TIP**: you can see which software is being installed at every moment with +the following command.
