Hi all,

I recently updated my system from Ubuntu 18.04 to 20.04. When I started using ROOT after doing this, I receive the the following error upon startup:

nick@nick-X510UAR:~/PHY496/HEPTutorial_0$ root
ERROR in cling::CIFactory::createCI(): cannot extract standard library include paths!
Invoking:
  LC_ALL=C x86_64-linux-gnu-g++-7  -O3 -DNDEBUG -xc++ -E -v /dev/null 2>&1 | sed -n -e '/^.include/,${' -e '/^ \/.*++/p' -e '}'
Results was:
With exit code 0

Any suggestions about how to rectify this?

Hi @Cepheides,
how did you install ROOT? The system update most likely requires a re-installation of ROOT, because your compiler and standard library are now different.

Cheers,
