[auton-users] Update your gmake-magic

[Michael J. Baysek]

Hi Lab,

Please update your gmake-magic right away.

1) Log into cpu.autonlab.org
2) cd h/gmake-magic (or wherever your gmake-magic(s) is/are)
3) cvs up

This changes the way rmath_new, and other static .a files are handled
within CVS.  It allows you to use rmath_new without needing to check
out 970 MB of extra bits into your ~/h.

If you had rmath_new checked out in your ~/h , I have taken the liberty
of performing the gmake-magic update for you, and removing the old
rmath_new.  The next time you build something which requires rmath_new,
it will be checked out afresh.

If you have h/ directories on your local disks, you should also update
the gmake-magic and delete rmath_new.

The change has been tested for the most common cases, and should also
work universally.  However, if you encounter a problem we did not
account for, please email me or Steve

Best,

Mike

P.S.

In general, it is good practice to run cvs up on your whole h/ from
time to time.  Doing so makes sure that your code will compile and run 
correctly against the latest changes that have been committed to CVS.
You can take this email as a recommendation to do the full h/ update if
you haven't done so recently.  To do the full h/ update:

cd ~/h
cvs up

Happy coding
