Folks,
As a preparatory step to automation of builds of new version sets in the
future, I have rebuilt the public installations of CERNLIB on all five
platforms at JLab. You should not notice anything different; the code is
exactly the same as before.
The five builds are in
/group/halld/Software/builds/$BMS_OSNAME/cernlib/2005 where $BMS_OSNAME
takes on values as follows:
Linux_CentOS6-x86_64-gcc4.9.2
Linux_CentOS7-x86_64-gcc4.8.5
Linux_CentOS7-x86_64-gcc4.8.5-cntr
Linux_RHEL6-x86_64-gcc4.9.2
Linux_RHEL7-x86_64-gcc4.8.5
The goal is to use a global top-level make to build new version sets.
The old builds of CERNLIB were vulnerable to damage when a re-make was
attempted (as happens with the global make). These builds were done
using a modern version of the CERNLIB-building makefile from
build_scripts that prevents that damage.
As a bonus feature, the "paw" program, which was missing for some of the
old builds, is there for all platforms now.
Let me know if you see problems. We can revert to the old versions of
CERNLIB quickly if we need to.
