I found the same errors when I tried installing the packages for MadAnalysis5. I'm not sure how to proceed further. Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi Benjamin,
Thanks for the prompt reply. I can't seem to understand how to upload the compilation.log file here, but I'll post the entirety of the file below (there is only one line in the compilation.log file).

make: *** No targets. Stop.

Please let me know if there is a trivial problem on my part or if there is a bug in my system.
Thanks a lot
Paavan

Hi,

Do you mind trying installing delphes externally (i.e. outside madanalysis 5) and see whether it works?

Cheers,

Benjamin
