Compilation problems

[Former user]

Hi,

I'm having trouble building rootana. When I run make in the freshly cloned project, I get the error message 'ar: obj/manalyzer.o: No such file or directory' when make tries to build the librootana.a target. See the attachment for the full output. I experienced the same problem on my Ubuntu 16.04/ROOT 6.22/06 system and a Centos 7/ROOT 6.06/02.

My temporary workaround was to revert to the tag 'manalyzer-2021-03-a', which compiles fine.

Cheers, Jonas.

Hi again,

It is said that only insane persons do the same thing twice and expect different outcomes. Well, it seems that the latest version of rootana compiles on my Ubuntu system, I just had to run ‘make' twice. I don’t know if this could hint to what the issue is.

Cheers, Jonas.

I can reproduce this problem on Macos 11.5.1 using ROOT 6.24 and Centos-7.9 using ROOT 6.10.

The problem happens when I clone a fresh copy of rootana.

I can confirm that the ‘insane’ solution of typing ‘make’ twice solves the problem.
