I just installed ROOT on my Ubuntu 18.04 laptop, so I am new to it. I am working with MadGraph and trying to convert some .root results of different events to .lhco file for further MadAnalysis analysis. I have installed Delphes and also ExRootAnalysis. I added path to Delphes to .bashrc, so that I can call the tool root2lhco from anywhere, but when I try to run it, I get a very long error, which you can find in the appendix. As far as I was searching the internet I found some replies about adding the ROOT_INCLUDE_PATH variable, but now I am not sure, where to point it to. I already tried pointing it to Delphes, ROOT and ExRootAnalysis.
Can anybody please help me? Thank you in advance,

Thank you for your answer. So I added the rdict.pcm to LD_LIBRARY_PATH and there is less error messages and it produces the output. However, in root file, there is 10 000 events, while in the output, there is only 2500? I also still get some errors (included in appendix) - from the requested link/topic, I found that .h files should be included to ROOT_INCLUDE_PATH, so I added the .h files from the error messages to the path, but the error is still there.
Don’t add the headers to ROOT_INCLUDE_PATH but only the directory necessary to find ExRootAnalysis/ExRootConfReader.h etc. I.e. if you have /my/home/delphes/exroot/ExRootAnalysis/ExRootConfReader.h, ROOT_INCLUDE_PATH should be /my/home/delphes/exroot.
Regarding the number of entries: as we don’t know what root2lhco does (that’s not a ROOT thing) we won’t be able to be of much help with it. Maybe ask the Delphes people?
