2002/10/24 ROOT-3.03.09-cvs20021023 on MacOS X Release 10.2

There has been a problem with a test program (test/bench) when compiled with gcc3.1: when you try to run it, the program seg-faults. The CVS version fixed part of the problem but not all. When executed, the "bench" program was caught by semaphore and stuck there. The ACliC feature of ROOT is not functional for the CVS version, either. I needed a patch to fix these problem. The patch has been sent to the ROOT team.

The binary tarball with the patch applied and compiled with gcc 3.1 is available: root_v3.03.09-cvs20021023-macosx10.2.tar.gz which passed all the standard ROOT test suite.

As for the RPMs I have built for MacOS X Release 10.2.X, the following directories might be useful:

SPECS
SOURCES
SRPMS
RPMS

where you can find spec files, my private patches, source RPMs, and binary RPMs, respectively. Note that the RPMS directory contains two subdirectories, "ppc" for architecture-dependent binariy packages, while "noarch" for those architecture-independent. For those packages without real source RPMs or those provided only as tar balls, you can find the corresponding original source packages and my private patches in src. The binary tar balls are in tgz.

These packages have been tested on my machines (G3 Series PowerBook, aka Wallstreet and Ti PowerBook G4) but might not work on your platform. Install them thus at your own risk.

Notice also that new packages are under ~fujiik/macosx/10.2.X/, while the old ones built on Release 10.1.X, 10.0.X, and Public Beta are under ~fujiik/macosx/10.1.X/, ~fujiik/macosx/10.0.X/, and ~fujiik/macosx/, respectively, and will not be supported.
