Installation fails with some undefined references

Hi everybody,

I’m trying to install ROOT (svn revision 48197) to my Xubuntu 12.10 machine and I fails to build it. The error is given below. I installed all the prerequisites given on http://root.cern.ch/drupal/content/build-prerequisites. I attached my config log. Maybe this helps.

Ok, bad mistake by me…

I installed ROOT using the Ubuntu Software Center before and just forgot to deinstall it. After this it builds.

Can I close the thread somehow?
