I’m trying to (re)install root v6.26/02 from source (due to a gcc upgrade). Using the cmake line from 6.22 failed as building xrootd failed. Once with a compilation error and once due to failing to download. Being unaware of any need for xrootd, I tried building without using
cmake ../root-6.26.02/ -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/programs/ROOT/v6.26.02 -DCMAKE_CXX_STANDARD=17 -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS=-march=native -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS=-march=native -Dxrootd=OFF -Dbuiltin_xrootd=OFF -Dqt=OFF -Dbuiltin_gsl=ON -Dminuit2=ON -Droofit=ON -Dunuran=ON -Dpython3=ON -DPYTHON_EXECUTABLE=/usr/bin/python3.8 -DPYTHON_INCLUDE_DIR=/usr/include/python3.8 -DPYTHON_LIBRARY=/usr/lib/python3.8/config-3.8-x86_64-linux-gnu/libpython3.8.so
But this fails with a cmake error:

-- Configuring done
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:518 (add_dependencies):
The dependency target "NetxNG" of target "modules_idx" does not exist.

Any ideas how to move forward from here?
(before installing ROOT I made sure all the required packages for Ubuntu are installed a-la Dependencies - ROOT, upgraded all packages, and rebooted)
