V5.34.34 make error in Ubuntu 18.04.2

Hello

I am running Ubuntu 18.04.2 and trying to build ROOT v5.34.34 (environment driven build) but I am getting a error during make which I don’t recognize. All of the prerequisite packages have been installed. The error message shows:

ar: u' modifier ignored sinceD’ is the default (see `U’)
libtool: link: ranlib .libs/liblzma.a
libtool: link: ( cd “.libs” && rm -f “liblzma.la” && ln -s “…/liblzma.la” “liblzma.la” )
make[2]: Leaving directory ‘/home/user/Programs/root/core/lzma/src/xz-5.0.3/src/liblzma’
make[1]: Leaving directory ‘/home/user/Programs/root/core/lzma/src/xz-5.0.3/src/liblzma’

Thanks in advance for the advice!

Hi there

Thank you for the reply. I followed your advice, followed the link to install v5-34-00 patches with git but encountered the same error as before. The output files from the configure and make is attached. Any ideas how I can fix this so that I can install?

Best regards,

Hi again

That worked well and I was able to make root but the make install command encountered problems with finding libASImage.so as shown below:

Again, I have installed ROOT many times but not seen this error before and I don’t know why. Do you perhaps have any suggestions?

Thanks in advance

Try to remove everything and start from scratch again (i.e. from downloading the source code).

BTW. If you build ROOT “in-place” then you don’t need to install it.
