I was trying to offline install ROOT on my linux platform frome the source and accidentialy face to failure of downloading googletests. How to avoid?
You can try disabling the self test part of the build with -Dtesting=OFF
Hi @Alex2671,
Other than @pcanal’s answer, and unless there’s a justified reason to do otherwise, the recommended method to get a particular ROOT version installed is through precompiled packages, the package manger of your distribution, or Conda builds (take a look at Installing ROOT - ROOT).
Cheers,
J.
