@Tim Edwards I was trying to update

magic

today but getting following error. Please suggest.

@vks Did you run

./configure

before make?

@Mitch Bailey I didn't ran

./configure

. I was trying to update existing open pdk. I ran

git pull

make

and to be followed by

sudo make install

. Is this the right sequence for update ?

Compiling magic should not effect the pdk. I don’t know the default magic installation directory or the directory where you want to install. It might be best to be explicit. ./configure sets the install directory and other variables necessary for compilation (make). Run which magic to find the installation directory. For example, if it’s installed at /usr/local/bin/magic the install directory you should specify is /usr/local Run ./configure —prefix=/usr/local make sudo make install Note that there are 2 - before prefix

@vks: You have lost an intermediate script file that is not rebuilding. Do a

make clean

, possibly

(sudo) make veryclean

, and re-run

./configure

, and it should be okay. However, since when you did

git pull

it said "Already up to date", you presumably have the most recent version installed.
