I had exactly the same problems not so long ago so i followed the
instructions from this site and uninstalled the brickos i had and used the
one they had provided following the link.
I uninstalled everything and followed what the website says.. and the exact same thing happened with the make depend command and I got an error with the make command too... weird. --Jason (22 years ago, 4-Feb-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
