During configure, I get the message​:

  Run make depend now? [y]
  sh ./makedepend MAKE=make
  ./makedepend​: /dev/null​: cannot execute
  ./makedepend​: -f​: not found
  cp​: missing destination file
  Try `cp --help' for more information.
  ./makedepend​: test​: argument expected
  make​: *** [depend] Error 1

I configure perl with the command​:

#!/bin/csh -f
unsetenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH
unsetenv LD_LIBRARY_PATHBAS
/bin/sh Configure -des \
  -Dinstallprivlib='/usr/local/gnu/lib/perl5.004_03' \

Any idea what's wrong?

Help!

Often, this is caused by a stray $CONFIG variable being set in your
environment so that the ./makedepend script thinks it has already sourced
the config.sh file.

Try running
  unsetenv CONFIG
and then
  make depend
and see if that gets you any further.

Hope this helps,

5.6.0 no longer relies on $CONFIG variable.
