Root compilation

ROOT

Dear all,
I am trying to compile Root on the Alma Linux platform.
The CMake configuration is as follows:
-Dqtgsi=OFF -Dqt=OFF -Dpython=OFF -Dxrootd=OFF
The compilation fails with the following error messages:

Can you help me?

Welcome to the ROOT forum. May be @devajith has an idea about it.

Hi @gabigong,

You’re probably running out of memory when building LLVM. Can you try building again with fewer threads?

make -j<N> # or cmake --build . -- -j<N>

Just replace <N> with a smaller number of threads (e.g, 4) to reduce memory usage during the build.

Hi @devajith,
I tried, but the result is the same.
