Building root 5.34.11 on mac os 10.9 (Marvericks)

ROOT

Dear all,

I’m having trouble to build root 5.34.11 on mac os 10.9. I used the configure command:

./configure macosx64 --with-gsl-incdir="/opt/local/include" --with-gsl-libdir="/opt/local/lib" --enable-gviz --enable-minuit2 --enable-tmva --enable-roofit >& log.txt

and an error occurs pretty fast:

Do you have any idea how to fix this error? I looked in the root directory and no file named “AvailabilityMacros.h” exists. You can find attached the logs of the configure and the make commands.

Cheers,

Hi,
Have you done ‘xcode-select --install’, after upgrading to mac os 10.9? When you upgraded, it also upgraded XCode and removed the command line tools (end removed include & libs, which is why you won’t find any system headers along the default path) — well at least for me and a bunch of other people that was the case. So you have to reinstall the command line tools by that command.
