RE: Avoid pressing 'Enter' when compiling net-snmp

I am already using all the following configure flags:
    --with-default-snmp-version=3\
    [email protected]\
    --with-sys-location=\
    --with-logfile=/var/log/snmp/log/\
    --with-persistent-directory=/data/etc/snmp/snmp_persist/\
And still see "press return to continue" prompt.

Do I still need to add "--with-defaults"?
What are the consequences of adding it?

Thank you,
Naama

There are five such user-prompted settings:
   - the default version of SNMP to use
   - the system contact
   - the system location
   - the default location of the logfile
   - the default location for persistent storage

Five is not really "many"

Enter?

   $ ./configure --help | grep defaults
  --with-defaults         Use defaults for prompted values.

You may also want to use
  --with-logfile="location"
  --with-persistent-directory="directory"
  --with-sys-contact="who@where"
  --with-sys-location="location"
  --with-default-snmp-version="3"
