Pretty much as the title says. I installed Fedora Core 4 and have the 'makedepend' manpage available, but I don't have the tool. I poked around a bit online and was not able to find which package it is a part of. Could anybody help me out?

Is it possible it's installed but just off your path? Have you looked in /sbin and /usr/sbin? Tried "locate makedepend"?

If it's really not there, "yum search makedepend" might help.

Tried both of them before posting. I did a locate and it's not found, and also did a 'yum list' and no 'makedepend' package showed up.

And 'yum search'? I mean, it's not likely to help, but it might be mentioned in the comments of a package but not the actual name.

Hmm, again, this probably won't help but on the 3 *nix machines I have available to me:

os x (with X installed): /usr/X11R6/bin/makedepend
openbsd (no X): not found
ubuntu (with X obviously): /usr/X11R6/bin/makedepend

I don't know much about it, but from my brief peak at the manpage I don't understand why this is an X-only thing :confused:
