Re: [Bro-Dev] viability of stand-alone (not installed) Bro
I don't think that is intended behavior, but rather an unintended consequence of some of the work on the file analysis framework and shipping with our own magic DB. Perhaps Jon can elaborate more on what it would take to fix this?

However, the reason for this note (rather than a shiny-new-tracker ticket) is I'm wondering whether filing the ticket is a lost cause (i.e., the current philosophy is it's okay if things only work post make install) ... ?

Try source build/bro-path-dev.sh. Cool, that does it. The only problem is surely I'm going to fail to remember that bit of voodoo, and bug you with similar questions in the future at least three more times :-P.

Quite the opposite: I'm sure most of us run it right out of the source tree more often than not. Try source build/bro-path-dev.sh.
