You're right. The annoying behavior is not triggered by the Emacs
compilation progress itself, but by the following command which is
used to install the dependencies on Debian derivative OSes:
$ sudo apt -y build-dep emacs
See the attached file for the screenshot shown on my machine. But I
still don't know how to disable this behavior when using the above
command.
