Hi everybody, i had problems installing last root version on ubuntu 17, i try to install using method: " Location independent build" , so i did this:

  1. Get the sources of the latest ROOT (see above)

    1. Type the build commands:
        mkdir <builddir>
        cd <builddir>
        cmake ../root
        make -j4

but in the last… it show me this: Makefile:151: fail in the instructions for objetive 'all' make: *** [all] Error 2.

and i can not find a solution can you help me?

Dear christian_orlando_si,

The instructions you have reported are clearly incomplete: can you follow the section quick start and post the exact messages you get on the screen (also from the cmake step)?

Which ROOT version exactly are you trying to build?
Try to run the following command (and attach the created file here):

make -j1 > make.out.txt 2>&1

It seems to me that you do not have the shared libpython2.7.so library installed (so it tries to link against the archive /usr/local/lib/libpython2.7.a library).

You need to talk to the one who installed your python 2.7 in /usr/local.
