This looks like it is supposed to be a shell script, and in the shell
script is an assignment line.  However, the '-' there can not be part
of a variable name, so the shell thinks that is a command.  Which,
naturally, is not found.

Somehow your script is incorrect.  That script is part of the
'makedev' package.  Try reinstalling that package and see if the
script changes.
