Hi Pete,
You should not need to edit the Makefile.
After you ran assemble_synApps.sh and edited support/configure/RELEASE did you run this command:
make release
You need to do that before then running
make

Subject: building synApps from Git
I just downloaded the latest synApps collection according to the instructions on its site, using the command:
bash ./assemble_synApps.sh
followed, after setting some variables, "make".
It seems that the build works through the modules in alphabetical order, without regard to dependencies. In particular, it tries to build areaDetector very early, which fails because a bunch of libraries from other modules don't exist yet. I edited the Makefile
to move the areaDetector reference later in the list, and everything built OK.
Is this how it's supposed to be? Did I do something wrong?
Pete.
