While installing root, when I’m running the make command, after 100% the terminal is showing:

I also attached a txt file containing the detailed terminal message. Please help me out with this problem.
Thank You

Please note that the ROOT Team provides ready to use binary distributions and the “Ubuntu 16 gcc5.4" is one of the supported systems.

I used binary releases before. They used to give random errors. That’s why I want to build from source. Is it not possible ?

But if I remove “Anaconda”, Then will PyRoot work properly? If I install Anaconda after installing ROOT, will there be some kind of problem? Please let me know in details.

Just like you said, I removed anaconda and tried to reinstall root from the scratch and terminal output is like this:problem2.txt (44.7 KB)
PLease help me out.
Thank you.
