Undefined symbols for architecture arm64

[eballabe]

Dear ROOT experts,
I have troubles installing HistFitter on my arm64 macOS, and I was wondering if the errors are ROOT-related. Any ideas how can I solve these undefined symbols?

Undefined symbols for architecture arm64:
“ROOT::Math::normal_cdf (double, double, double)”, referenced from:
RooStats::get_Pvalue(RooStats::HypoTestInverterResult const*, bool) in StatTools.o
“ROOT::Math::MinimizerOptions::DefaultStrategy()”, referenced from:
RooStats::ProfileLikelihoodTestStat::ProfileLikelihoodTestStat(RooAbsPdf&) in HypoTestTool.o
RooStats::MaxLikelihoodEstimateTestStat::MaxLikelihoodEstimateTestStat(RooAbsPdf&, RooRealVar&) in HypoTestTool.o
RooStats::ProfileLikelihoodTestStat::ProfileLikelihoodTestStat(RooAbsPdf&) in StatTools.o
Util::FitPdf(RooWorkspace*, TString, bool, RooAbsData*, TString, bool, TString, bool, TString) in Utils.o
Util::doFreeFit(RooWorkspace*, RooDataSet*, bool const&, bool const&, bool, bool, TString) in Utils.o

I’m using the latest ROOT v6.24.06 (binary, macOS 11.5 arm64 Xcode 12).
My macOS is Monterey version 12.0.1, chip Apple M1.

Cheers,
Eric

That’s during building ROOT where you see the “Undefined symbols” error? If so, could you share your ROOT build’s CMakeLists.txt?

Hah, no, you’re using a binary ROOT, and it happens while building some non-ROOT package. I suppose that package forgot to link against libMathCore, which contains “ROOT::Math::normal_cdf?
