Hi Christian, You also have to disable it within the ROOT build infrastructure. It should be enough, I think, to edit the debian/rules file such that the Make variable $(CONFOPTIONS) includes --enable-maxdb (or whatever) on the supported arches and --disable-maxdb on the rest, with a Make ifeq statement of some kind. (And of course to put the Architecture statement in the control file so that dpkg-buildpackage doesn't error out at the end.) > The package `root-plugin-hbook' might have a similar problem on > gnu/kfreebsd, so I should know. Incidentally I suggest only installing libHbook.so.5.09 (and symlinks to it) on 32-bit architectures. I'm very dubious that it would work correctly on 64-bit arches, although I haven't tested. You could still build g2root and h2root, but I recommend linking them statically against packlib and kernlib. best regards, -- Kevin B.
