OK, so it shouldn't live in it's own package - Is that correct?

I really think it would be a good idea to formulate what is the core of ROOT, and what isn't.

I would have assumed that the FOAM library is not part of the core or ROOT, and as such should go into a separate package.

libMatrix is needed by the core classes of ROOT. For example, the library libHist contains TPrincipal, which uses TMatrixDSym.

Unless you want to put FOAM in a separate package, I believe the patch is OK.

Yours,
