The synApps RELEASE files point to $(SUPPORT)/seq-2-2-5.  That said, how would I install EPICS and synApps in a distinct directory if I need to include the source?

Hi Iain,

I was able to build the standalone sequencer fine.  Yokogawa appears to build, but asyn fails with

make[4]: *** No rule to make target `ipSNCServer.o', needed by `libtestIPServerSupport.a'.  Stop.

The sequencer provides its own set of build rules which the EPICS build system will pull in automatically from the sncseq module when you list it in your application's configure/RELEASE file. This isn't happening for you, and I suspect you're trying to use a modified build system since you also wrote this earlier:

-snc binary in /opt/epics/bin/linux-arm

That isn't how the sequencer normally comes, GNUmake needs to see the contents of the sncseq/configure/RULES_BUILD file for any application that needs to compiler sequence programs.
