#15881: Building foo with target all

     Type:  defect                   |      Status:  new                                  
 Priority:  Normal                   |   Milestone:  MacPorts base bugs

 Why does the user care that a port is being built "with target all"?

 {{{
 $ port install foo
 --->  Fetching foo
 --->  Verifying checksum(s) for foo
 --->  Extracting foo
 --->  Applying patches to foo
 --->  Configuring foo
 --->  Building foo with target all
 --->  Staging foo into destroot
 --->  Installing foo @1.2.3_0
 --->  Activating foo @1.2.3_0
 --->  Cleaning foo
 $
 }}}

 The user is not informed of any other minutiae of the build process, for
 example whether the source was extracted from a bzip2 or a gzip or a zip
 archive, or whether a particular configure argument was needed, or whether
 the destroot phase needed to inform the install process of the destroot
 path via different mechanism. The user doesn't care about all that, nor
 does he care that the "make" command happened to want the argument "all"
 passed to it. And if he does, he can use the verbose or debug switches. So
 can we please remove "with target <whatever>" from the "Building" info
 line?

Comment (by raimue@...):

 I agree that this is unnecessary information for the end user.

 Attached a patch to remove it.
