dbdlint (dbd/db verify tool)

[Sue Witherspoon via Tech-talk <tech-talk@aps.anl.gov>]

Greetings!

  I am trying to upgrade to use EPICS 3.15.6 and my standard database make tool used to a database verification while converting a vdct vdb file. So the dbStaticHost.lib is gone. So I wanted to replace that functionality with Michael Davidsaver's dbdlint script.  So I got the code from github but I'm not able to communicate to the script my database definition.

devl06 [130]:   dbdlint -F -Wall /usr/dvlepics/epics/R3.15.6.J0/dbd/base.dbd junk.db

Can someone give me a hint as to what I need to do get this to work?

Thanks in advance,
