Re: FW: Building ROOT on Fedora 9

Hi,

   I have had great success installing Root 5.20.00 on Fedora 9, and in fact, attempting to package it for inclusion in Fedora While I don't have an answer to these particular problems you list, I will just give you some hints that may help. Some of these files, I'm sure, you already have installed, but I'll list them anyway. In particular, cstdio seems to be missing, and that is part of libstdc++-devel. So if you install just that and it works, great, if not, then just install the packages listed below.

The following packages are minimally required, from what I can tell:

libX11-devel
libXft-devel
libXpm-devel

libXext-devel
pcre-devel
pcre

If you want the more advanced math functions, I would also recommend you install:
gsl
gsl-devel

For proper OpenGL functionality, the following are also required: libGL-devel
libGLU-devel

If you get errors about fonts, also install: xorg-x11-fonts-ISO8859-1-75dpi

To compile root make sure you have the following installed: gcc
gcc-c++
libstdc++
libstdc++-devel ( this one has that file it seems to complain about with you: cstdcio )

You may install these through yum.

Like I said, I have had success compiling and using ROOT with the above files installed. I compile it on Fedora 9 x86_64.

If all fails, I'll send you an rpm and you can try to work with that.
