[MITgcm-support] makedepend: error

[Patrick Heimbach]

Hi Matt,

haven't followed this thread,
but I think you are using this in the wrong way.
Way to do it is

1.
go to
tools/cyrus-imapd-makedepend/
In this directory only do the following two commands
(no need to change any files):

./configure
make

2.
go back to your build-dir.
 From here do
../../../tools/genmake2 -makedepend ../../../tools/cyrus-imapd- 
makedepend/makedepend -of ...etc...

Should work.
I am frequently getting this now since we've exeeded MAXFILES
from standard makedepend installations on quite a few platforms.

-p.
