RE: Can't find file 'devSequencer.dbd'

[Mark Rivers <rivers@cars.uchicago.edu>]

There are 2 problems with synApps motor-6-9.

You need to remove the following 2 lines from motorApp/PIGCS2Src/PI_GCS2Support.dbd
include "asyn.dbd"
include "motorRecord.dbd"

That will eliminate one error.  The error about missing devSequencer.dbd is something else.

The other problem is that motorExApp/WithAsyn/Makefile does not work with seq-2-2-3 because devSequencer.dbd no longer exists.

You can get the latest version from GitHub or apply the following patch.

There really should be a new release of the synApps motor module.  6-9 is more than 1.5 years old and has a number of known problems, includingbuilding with EPICS 3.15.x, building with more recent versions of seq, building dynamically on Windows, etc.

Note that this error is different from teh one you got originally, it
complains that you included both asynRecord.dbd and asyn.dbd, and I
think the problem is because asyn.dbd already includes asynRecord.dbd,
so now you have the record definition twice.
