MadAnalysis 5

compilation problem

Asked by John Doe

Hi, I have trouble compiling MadAnalysis5 version 1.2, apparently related to linking the fastjet library.
The compilation log is pasted below. Any help appreciated.

Sorry I forgot to mention the fastjet library version is 3.1.3.

Hi John,

Could you try to use an ma5-local version of fastjet (by typing install fastjet in the ma5 shell).

Cheers,

Benjamin

Hi Benjamin,

thanks for your reply. I disabled the systemwide fastjet (by moving /usr/local/fastjet-config to /usr/local/whatever), and let ma5 install the local version and recompile. Everything went fine, except that now ma5 compiles every time I invoke it.

The truth is that I don't need to run fastjet from within ma5. Can I make ma5 ignore the system-wide fastjet installation, compile without the fastjet library, and keep ignoring it so that it doesn't have to recompile at every invokation ?

Best regards

To be more precise, ma5 seems to recompile every *other* time I invoke it.

Hi John,

You can edit the madanalysis/input/installation_options.dat file to force ma5 to use a given version of fastjet. This should do the work.

Cheers,

Benjamin

Hi Benjamin, it did work. Like I said, I don't need to run fastjet from within ma5, so this is perfectly fine for me. Thanks so much for your help.
