Fatal error showing when installing old root version

Brian_Huang · July 4, 2025, 6:53am

Dear all experts,

I’m trying to install old version root by compiling from source code, and I have installed all the required and most common dependencies through homebrew.

after cmake-gui and set install_prefix and providing those paths, I ran make -j4 then these series of fatal error messages showed up when [ 76%] Built target MetaCling start

can anyone give me some ideas how to solve it?

@couet could you please take a look?

I have tried to reinstall Xcode the 15.4 and ran cmake then make, but the same error is still showing

couet · July 4, 2025, 10:17am

I did the following on our M1 MacOs 14.7 machine:

 $  git clone https://github.com/root-project/root.git
 $  cd root
 $  git checkout v6-32-00-patches
 $  cd ..
 $  mkdir build
 $  cd build
 $  cmake ../root
 $  make -j8
 $  source bin/thisroot.sh

Hi @couet , thank you for the solution you provided, much appreciate it. Unfortunately, when I ran make -j4, I still got the same errors showing up at 76% progress. the CMakeError was showing and telling me to turn on builtin glew,-Dbuiltin_glew=ON I also set CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX= to the install folder I made. Now the Xcode version is 16.2, which is the latest compatible version with Sonoma 14.7.

contexts below are the most part of the error…
thanks for helping :(((

did you download every required and most common dependency through homebrew before installing root?

couet · July 7, 2025, 6:54am

No, I use Mac Port.
I guess you tried -Dbuiltin_glew=ON option for the cmake command (don’t forget to clean the build folder before.

cd build
rm -rf *
cmake ../root -Dbuiltin_glew=ON
make -j8

Hi @couet,
Thanks for helping, but it still failed unfortunately…
I have installed ROOT 6.36.0 through homebrew and it worked, I think installing the latest version is the only way…

couet · July 7, 2025, 10:19am

Ok, it is weird because I had no problems installing on a similar machine as yours.

couet · July 7, 2025, 10:19am

One more thing: what is the exact cmake command you are using ?

Brian_Huang · July 8, 2025, 2:47am

my cmake command is:

cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/Users/Home/ROOT_installation/install \
-Dbuiltin_glew=ON \
 ../root

couet · July 8, 2025, 6:28am

It looks this thread is similar to your problem.

Hello @Brian_Huang,

if installing from homebrew unblocked you, I think we could leave it at that.
If, however, you really need to compile from source, compiling the latest versions of ROOT is the better approach, because we are updating them regularly to keep track of changes in OS X.
