Hi,
I recently built ROOT 5.30/04 on x64 and had to do some “non-standard” stuff to get the build to complete:
svn co http://root.cern.ch/svn/root/tags/v5-30-04 root
cd root/
./configure linuxx8664gcc --enable-roofit --enable-minuit2 --enable-mathmore --enable-python --enable-fftw3 --enable-tmva --enable-x11 --enable-mysql
make
(fails with undefined reference errors)
g++ -m64 -O2 -o bin/hist2workspace roofit/histfactory/src/MakeModelAndMeasurements.o \
-Llib -lCore -lCint -lMathCore -lRIO -lNet -lHist -lGraf -lGraf3d -lGpad -lTree -lMatrix -lThread -lRint -Llib -lRooFit -lRooFitCore -lTree -lRIO -lMatrix -lHist -lMathCore -lGraf -lGpad -lMinuit -lFoam -lRooStats -lXMLParser -lHistFactory -lNet -lm -ldl -lRooFit -lRooFitCore -lGpad -pthread -rdynamic
make
(fails again)
g++ -m64 -O2 -o bin/pq2 proof/pq2/src/pq2actions.o proof/pq2/src/pq2main.o proof/pq2/src/pq2ping.o proof/pq2/src/pq2wrappers.o proof/pq2/src/redirguard.o -Llib -lRIO -lNet -lHist -lTree -lMatrix -lProof -lThread -lCore -lCint -lMathCore -lTree -lm -ldl -pthread -rdynamic
make
The fix was to take the -lRooFit and -lGpad and add them to the very end of the linking options. In the second case it was -lTree.
The build finished successfully after these changes, and I have no clue why they failed in the first place, I’m just documenting it here for posterity.
