Basic beginner 'getting started' broken

[dcsouthwick]

Hello,

I'm not sure if this project is maintained anymore, but it seems simplest 'getting started' example is broken.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Follow directions from https://dxr.readthedocs.io/en/latest/getting-started.html for linux machine
2. $ git clone https://github.com/mozilla/dxr.git
3. $ make shell

It's not actively maintained anymore, but thank you for the report nonetheless!

[dcsouthwick]

Oh :(

If you don't mind my asking, what are people using now? Did everyone revert to LXR?

[erikrose]

It's a mixture of DXR and SearchFox, with the wind blowing toward SearchFox. I'm spending most of my time on https://mozilla.github.io/fathom/.
