[Gate-users] Installing GATE on Ubuntu 9.04 - linking error

[Fares Alhassen]

Thanks for the advice, Chris. I tried making GATE again but I still received the same error message:

Using granular libraries ...
Linking Gate
/usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /home/fares/root/lib/libCore.so when searching for -lCore
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lCore
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [bin/Linux-g++/Gate] Error 1

Maybe your version of ROOT is different or the way you installed ROOT is different? My ROOT version is 5.20 and I think I installed it using the binary for RedHat Linux:
http://root.cern.ch/root/Version520.html

Sincerely,
Fares
