Essentially it is broken. It contains some parts ripped out of a
vintage ChangeFSI. In many ways, campins is a good idea executed in a
less than optimal and horrible to maintain way, especially when newer
versions of things it uses come out (like ChangeFSI, djpeg, PNG2Spr,
curl). It is a bit of a pain to customize for one's own requirements
too.
Replacing all references to campin:CFSI (a modified version of
ChangeFSI 1.15) with <ChangeFSI$Dir>.ChangeFSI helps as a start.
You'll need to do this in each TaskObey script and in camchk.
The supplied (in resources) rand, jpegtran and djpeg.djeg are not
32-bit compatible.
You should also ensure you're not using the SharedUnixLibrary 1.02
supplied with campins but a later version as linked from:
