Hi there,
I installed (build) the latest root release with the following instructions
# aptitude install gfortran libpcre3-dev \
xlibmesa-glu-dev libglew1.5-dev libftgl-dev \
libmysqlclient-dev libfftw3-dev libcfitsio-dev \
graphviz-dev libavahi-compat-libdnssd-dev \
libldap2-dev python-dev libxml2-dev libkrb5-dev \
libgsl0-dev
# cd /opt
# git clone --branch latest-stable https://github.com/root-project/root.git root_src
# cd root_src
# mkdir builddir
# cd builddir
# cmake -Dgnuinstall=ON -DCMAKE_CXX_STANDARD=17 ..
# cmake --build . -- -j4
# make install
Doing this I now can launch root from a terminal simply using the command root. I also tried the root-config command that returns what looks like relevant results.
I use TH1 in C++/Qt/root project. I develop the project on fedora and people using the software use ubuntu. before adding root we never add any problems. My software was gently building on both OS.
My cmake file is the following one
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.16)

The error is something saying

In the file a little bit more details.
Thank you very much for your help
