RePlAce is not detected

[minhchuvolam]

The RePlAce module is not detected even though it is installed at /usr/local/bin/replace.

Configuration results:
----------------------------------------------------

Using yosys verilog synthesis tool at: /usr/local/bin/yosys
Using graywolf placement tool at: /usr/local/bin/graywolf
RePlAce not found.  Use --with-replace=<DIR> (optional)
Using qrouter detail route tool at: /usr/local/bin/qrouter
Using Magic layout tool at: /usr/local/bin/magic
Using Netgen LVS tool at: /usr/local/bin/netgen

assuming that you build your replace using the standalone git ...
make a copy of your replace file in <replace_root_dir>/RePlAce/build/ and rename it to RePlAce
this works for me

if i add RePlAce file inside /usr/local/bin, ntuplace3 and ntuplace4h are not detect
so i use --with-replace=<replace_root_dir>/RePlAce/build/

see my partial output below
