When migrating the old forum to the new one, the engine converted my link incorrectly.

The post I was referring to is:

Hi, I have created sft.its.cern.ch/jira/browse/ROOT-8392 for this. Axel.

This is a known problem: see ROOT 6 Build From Source Error on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Dirty solution: make -j4 Instead of make. Clean solution is to update your ROOT sources, a bug fix was recently implemented. git pull make

The JIRA ticket is:
