Hi Dimitrii,

that video indeed looks interesting.  The most interesting detail is at
00:20.  There, the screen does not become black at once, and the lines
do not scroll up with constant speed.

My guess is that some program changes the foreground and background
colors of the terminal, so that the remaining build commands are still
shown, but the colors are "black on black", which of course looks invisible.

To verify this assumption, please try this command:

make install clean 2>&1 | tr -d '\033'

This removes any ANSI escape sequences from the output.  Now all build
commands should be visible.
