While the process is running, the package will print messages detailing the features it is checking for.
Once you have completed configuration, you can compile the package by entering the command `make`. If needed, you can also run self-tests using the `make check` command.

While there is a `make maintainer-clean` option, this is primarily for the developers of the package.
Overall, gnome-disk-utility is a solid option for anyone who regularly deals with storage devices. Its various tools and features make it easy to manage your storage in a more effective and efficient manner.
