Error on root compilation on os-x-10.12.5

[gkole]

Hello Experts;

I had installed ROOT 5.34/36 about 1 year ago.
Now I need to enable “minuit2”.
So I did
./configure --enable-minuit2
then while doing “make” it give the following error [1]
I have checked my gcc version. [2]
also my “xcode-select -v” outout is “xcode-select version 2347.”

Any help will be useful for me.
Thanks for your suggestion.

Apple disguises clang as gcc in recent versions of Mac OS X. It could be that this breaks compatibility with ROOT (it certainly breaks compatibility with other software too). Is there any chance you could try with a real gcc compiler rather than clang? That may solve your problem. Alternatively, you could try with clang directly, without the gcc interface disguise.
