Hi Christian, The CRAN folks are currently experimenting with clang 4.0.0 for producing the Mac binaries of R and CRAN packages so we are using the same on veracruz2. This is a version of clang that is ahead of what's in XCode 8.x or XCode 7.x. So I guess that means we'll have to compile ROOT from source on veracruz2.
BTW any reason not to make xps work with ROOT 6? Cheers, H. On 03/23/2017 07:28 AM, cstrato wrote:
Dear Valerie, I have seen that you have set up a new Mac server, veracruz2, running El Capitan. Although the development version of xps does even run on Mac OS Sierra, one issue still remains the same: You need to install the latest ROOT version 5, since xps does not run with ROOT 6! So you need to install on veracruz2 the same root version that you have installed on toluca2 running Maverics, i.e. root_v5.34.36.macosx64-10.11-clang70.dmg However, if you have installed on El Capitan XCode 8.x instead of XCode 7.x, then you need to compile ROOT from source, i.e.: https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__root.cern.ch_download_root-5Fv5.34.36.source.tar.gz&d=DwICAg&c=eRAMFD45gAfqt84VtBcfhQ&r=BK7q3XeAvimeWdGbWY_wJYbW0WYiZvSXAJJKaaPhzWA&m=q9mk6yIytaNZlSdiLX_dFwchX8Tb7ra6x3WBBNIcs2o&s=Lz7YkqZ3XwjRsYIXVTbSvbDvTM-jTyoWvoVSa1PdBDw&e= The README file of xps does explain how to compile ROOT for Sierra. This should also be valid for El Capitan running XCode 8.x. Thank you in advance.
