I now have
root [0] gROOT->GetGitCommit()
(const char *) "v6-23-01-335-gffa7013ea6"
root [1]
compiled with python2 (2.7.18) using
cmake ../root-6.23.01 -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/root -Dgnuinstall=ON -Droofit=ON -Drpath=ON -Dsoversion=ON -Dpython=ON -DPYTHON_EXECUTABLE=/usr/bin/python2 -Dcling=ON
As mentioned by @Wile_E_Coyote in his Python in ROOT 6.22.99 post, some macros in the pyroot directory work some don’t. I feel that there is a need to seriously check the compatibility of those macros. However, in my case all the macros in demo.py work except framework.py, first.py, file.py, fildir.py, tree.py, and rootmarks.py, which give errors similar to the one below
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'file.py'
Also, when I run python2 demoshelp.py as standalone macro, it runs and flashes the canvas and vanishes quickly, even before I see what is there on the canvas! However, when I run it through python2 demo.py it stays there.
Further, root-config --config | grep PYTHON doesn’t return anything!
I think, PYTHON_INCLUDE_DIR, PYTHON_LIBRARY, PYTHON_LIBRARY_RELEASE in addition to the PYTHONPATH should be automatically set since we compile ROOT with -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX set.
May I request you to please look into this.
