Normally these errors are seen on 64 bit linux systems when compiling for 64 bit if the libraries installed which are linked against are 32 bit. On some systems you will see the warning without getting an error: in that case the linker first finds the 32 bit library, e.g. installed for compatibility reasons; then it comes across the 64 bit library which it links against. I suspect you are trying to install on a 64 bit system, but you probably have installed a version of Root which has been compiled for 32 bit. Please check for that. If so, the solution is simple: either download and install a 64 bit pre-compiled Root version or download the Root sources and compile from scratch. I’d do the latter…<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Hope the given information is of use.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Best regards,<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Wolfram<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Dr. Wolfram Stiller, Dipl.-Phys.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Universitätsklinikum Heidelberg<o:p></o:p> Abteilung für Diagnostische und Interventionelle Radiologie<o:p></o:p> Im Neuenheimer Feld 110<o:p></o:p> D-69120 Heidelberg<o:p></o:p> Germany<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> E-mail: wolfram.stiller@med.uni-heidelberg.de<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Tel.: +49 (0) 6221 56 37240 or<o:p></o:p>        +49 (0) 6221 56 6434<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Diese E-Mail enthält vertrauliche und/oder rechtlich geschützte Informationen.
