Hello,
I have installed Root version 6.14 from source so I can enable the TGeoCad interface (https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1742-6596/523/1/012017), no longer available in the latest release versions, apparently. I need it in order to convert some Root ALICE geometries to STEP for a project. I followed the instructions for installing the latest version of Open Cascade using Cmake (https://dev.opencascade.org/doc/overview/html/occt_dev_guides__building_cmake.html). I have configured ROOT’s Building Options (https://root.cern.ch/building-root#options) to enable geocad, but when I run the following command to build Root, from its build directory, I get an error message.
<ROOT_BUILD_DIR>$ cmake --build .

ROOT Version: 6.14.00
Platform: Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS
Could someone help me out?
I undestand this is not exclusively about ROOT but I appreciate any help I can get.
Thank you in advance!
