EnablePackage sometimes fails with 5.26-proof04

ROOT

Hi

Recently I am experiencing a weird problem which I dont know how to debug.
I moved to version 5.26-proof04 and since then, I noticed that

gProof->EnablePackage() fails in maybe one or more workers at a time. The appearance of this error and the worker that triggers it is apparently random.
The errors looks like

Wrk-0.26: error: function SETUP() not found in macro 'HISTOGRAMMERPKG/PROOF-INF/SETUP.C': cannot continue
Wrk-0.26: failure loading HISTOGRAMMERPKG ...

The reason behind it is that the link that should be in the worker directory
/home/proof/cosuna/last-worker-session/worker-0.33-pfwork05-1283891633-4270
is not, just for the one that fails, although the package is properly uploaded into the workdir of the worker.

If I move back to 5.26d, then I dont get the error anymore.
And I dont see any hint in the log files.

Any idea?

cheers, carlos

Hi,

This problem should be fixed in the ROOT trunk and in the trunk of the branch (5-26-00-proof).
In 5.26d you do not see because it relates to a new feature that has been implemented recently
and ported to 5-26-00-proof (not to 5.26x).
