    Rebuilding the DEIMOS Package

    1. Before starting IRAF, you must define a UNIX enviroment variable pointing to the directory where the DEIMOS package resides: 
    setenv deimos /path_ending_in_slash/

    2. In IRAF, change to the package directory (should already be defined if the package has been installed), make sure the system architecture is correctly specified, and rebuild: 

    cl>  cd deimos$
cl>  mkpkg arch linux		# eg linux; also ssun, macosx, ...
cl>  mkpkg -p deimos
    You should now load the package (deimos), or, if already loaded, do a flpr to force the newer version to be loaded.

    3. If you must recompile for some reason, then between the two mkpkg statements above, delete the current object code: 

    cl>  cd deimos$
cl>  mkpkg arch ...
cl>  del src/libpkg.a,*.o
cl>  mkpkg -p deimos
    This will force a full rebuild including recompilation.
