Improvements to scons files have been implmented in podd and hcana. Steve has updated the podd submodule in hcana. SO now if you pull down the latest hcana from the upstream (JeffersonLab) and do git submodule sync git submodule update The hcana will compile properly. At least it did for me on cdaql1 with both root PRO and root 6.08 . Cheers, Mark
