Note that in your gcc command -I is followed immediately by -MM, rather than by an include directory. This suggests a problem with configure/RELEASE, since it should probably be the location of EPICS base.

I am building medm on rhel7. Medm is already installed, but when typing into text input fields, it will not accept

entry. caput to the PV works. Strange. I assume that there are mismatched libraries on the OS and whatever

medm was built with. I have seen this very problem on windows boxes.



So when building, I yum installed all the packeages from the medm website, https://epics.anl.gov/extensions/medm/index.php


I am using this linux:
Linux csi357421.aps.anl.gov<http://csi357421.aps.anl.gov> 3.10.0-957.10.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu Feb 7 07:12:53 UTC 2019 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux


I am using base 3 15 6

I get these errors during make, when trying to make printutils. See below. Any ideas?
