6.14/02 build problem in AfterImage

Previously I was struggling to install root-6.14.00 due to TBB error. So when I got to know that there is a patch release I deleted all the files of root-6.14.00 and downloaded root-6.14.02 and started to installed the patch release version. Configuration was successful but make command gave me the following error.

[ 0%] Performing configure step for ‘AFTERIMAGE’

Kindly Help. I am tryi to install root from past one week or so.

Use cmake instead of configure. More information here.

I think only for root lower than root-6 configure command works. So I used cmake

mkdir root-build cd root-build
cmake ../root-6.14.02 make

It configured well with cmake and upon make it gave following errr which I mentioned in my previous comment.

You seem to have a problem with permissions, but it’s hard to guess what since the error is inside the log file listed at the end of your message after See also.
