Hi,

I have been following this bug but I have no experience in packaging. So I
posted to the project mailing list. The developers replied back about some of
the issues discussed here (e.g. CINT). They also mentioned they will be able to
help if someone takes this up with the developer team at rootdev@xxxxxxxxxxxx
or on their bug-tracker at https://savannah.cern.ch/projects/savroot/ .

I am quoting the email below. Maybe this will help someone.

Hi Suvayu,

a few commentes:
* CINT needs the include files in cint/cint/include at runtime. They are not
build time include files (those are in cint/cint/inc) - think of them as
something to be put in /usr/share/root.

* ROOT does not use the stand-alone CINT binary; we split them intentionally
also to allow package maintainers to produce CINT and ROOT packages without
overlap.

* ROOT is part of Debian, so you might want to contact "them" for the design
they used. They managed to create ROOT modules like this (output from apt-get
install root-<tab>, so some might be bogus):

root-db-client        root-plugin-gl        root-plugin-netx root-plugin-ruby  
   root-system-bin
root-file-server      root-plugin-hbook     root-plugin-odbc root-plugin-sql   
   root-system-common
root-fitter           root-plugin-krb5      root-plugin-peac root-plugin-tmva  
   root-system-doc
root-glviewer         root-plugin-ldap      root-plugin-pgsql
root-plugin-unuran    root-system-proofd
root-plugin-asimage   root-plugin-mathmore  root-plugin-proof root-plugin-xml  
    root-system-rootd
root-plugin-clarens   root-plugin-minuit    root-plugin-python
root-plugin-xproof    root-system-xrootd
root-plugin-eve       root-plugin-minuit2   root-plugin-qt root-proofd         
 root-tail
root-plugin-fftw3     root-plugin-mlp       root-plugin-quadp        root-ttf
root-plugin-fumili    root-plugin-mysql     root-plugin-roofit root-system

* ROOT in Debian is a proof that there are no licensing issues ;-)

* You won't have fun with your build result if you use the fedora default
libAfterImage. We use the bleeding edge one all the time, basically because we
are one of its main drivers for development. You have been warned :-)

* Christian Holm Christensen <cholm@xxxxxx> is our packaging guru, as you were
probably able to tell looking at $ROOTSYS/build/package/rpm/spec.in.

Cheers, Axel.
