[Magic-dev] Magic makedbh compile error?

[R. Timothy Edwards]

Dear David,

> I have recently downloaded the latest version of magic (April version) 
> from the website but sudden got this following error when compiling:
> 
> ./scripts/makedbh database/database.h.in database/database.h
> make[1]: ./scripts/makedbh: Command not found
> make[1]: *** [database/database.h] Error 127

This error means that the interpreter specified by the 1st line of
makedbh can't be found, not that makedbh itself can't be found.
The first line of makedbh is:

	#!/bin/csh -f

so if you don't have /bin/csh, it won't run.  If csh is in a different
location than /bin, or if you have tcsh but not csh, then you can make
a symbolic link /bin/csh to point to one of them.  Otherwise, you will
have to install a distribution of csh or tcsh on your system.

					Regards,
					Tim
