ROOT fails to build on Linux Mint 15 with CMake

All,

I am using Linux Mint 15 and trying to build root v5-34-07 from the git repository using CMake.

Here are my cmake options:
cmake -Dbonjour=OFF -Dc++11=ON

Initially it was failing at portions related to bonjour. I believe bonjour is a mac thing so I turned it off, not sure why it was building by default though. I also want to write c++ with c++11 features with root which is why I turned the c++11 option on.

CMake then configures as follows:

-- Found GCC. Major version 4, minor version 7 -- CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE: RelWithDebInfo -- Performing Test HAS_CXX11 -- Performing Test HAS_CXX11 - Success -- Found a 64bit system -- Found GNU compiler collection -- ROOT Platform: linux -- ROOT Architecture: linuxx8664gcc -- Build Type: RelWithDebInfo -- Compiler Flags: -pipe -m64 -Wall -W -Woverloaded-virtual -fPIC -std=c++11 -Wno-deprecated-declaration -- Looking for ZLib -- Looking for Freetype -- Looking for PCRE -- Looking for LZMA -- Found LZMA includes at /usr/include -- Found LZMA library at /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/liblzma.so -- Looking for X11 -- Looking for GSL -- Looking for Python -- Found Python interpreter version 2.7 -- Looking for GCCXML -- Looking for Kerberos 5 -- Looking for OpenSSL -- Enabled support for: asimage astiff builtin_afterimage builtin_ftgl builtin_glew c++11 cintex exceptions explicitlink genvector krb5 ldap mathmore memstat python reflex shadowpw shared ssl tmva xft x11 -- Configuring done -- Generating done -- Build files have been written to: /usr/local/src/root-build

During the build I get several warnings about root/misc/minicern/src/hbook.f and root/misc/minicern/src/zebra.f
Here are some of them,

Later on I receive fatal errors that prevent the build from proceeding,

I am using g++ (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.7.3-1ubuntu1) 4.7.3
gfortran -v yields the following,

Sorry for this being so long, but I hope this contains enough information to lead to some answers, I couldn’t find any relevant answers through google so maybe a developer can provide some advice.

Any help is appreciated, thanks!

A few tries with the ./configure and make method and I’m up and running. I’ll consider the cmake build system not-yet ready for non-rhel based linux distributions.

I’ll keep the post up here as an indication of possible problems on other systems.

Looking forward to ROOT 6!
