Problem with TBrowser x86-64 / i386

ROOT
1

Hello,

I am having an issue with TBrowser between different ROOT versions…

I have a ROOT file produced with /afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/app/releases/ROOT/5.30.06/i686-slc5-gcc43-opt/root. When I try to inspect that file with a TBrowser within a compiled version 5.32.00 (macosx106-x86_64-gcc-4.2) I got the following stack-trace:

On the same file, the same v5.32.00 version compiled in 32-bits (macosx106-i386-gcc-4.2) gives no errors.

Unfortunately I have no config.log, however in both cases I compiled them with Python 2.7 (private installation) and flags --enable-builtin-freetype --disable-xrootd. The only flag I changed was the architecture macosx / macosx64.

Is there anything I missed in configuring before compilation so that I got a crash in x86-64 not seen with i386 ?

Thanks a lot in advance.

Cheers,
Sergio

Fantastic, it works now perfectly.

Thanks a lot Olivier.

I made a FAQ with it: root.cern.ch/drupal/faq#n783
Is it what you did ?

Hi,

not at all. I did not uninstall those packages but just set the library paths. For a MacPorts installation:

--with-x11-libdir=/opt/local/lib 
--with-xpm-libdir=/opt/local/lib 
--with-xft-libdir=/opt/local/lib  
--with-xext-libdir=/opt/local/lib

Thanks. I did not know which one you took in that long post. I updated the FAQ.
