root6 - update to 6.04.12

[cjones051073 (Chris Jones)]

Update to 6.04.12. Also enables builtin Davix support.

[mojca (Mojca Miklavec)]

I'm compiling it now. Independent question about Python: is there any need to keep support for 2.6 around? Did you test 3.5? (I'm not sure how to use Python.)

[cjones051073 (Chris Jones)]

I find keeping two different python 2.x variants around as slightly useful, if only for testing, as if you recall the root5 and root6 ports cannot both activate support for the same python version. Also note that python 3.x support has always been a little patchy, but i confess i have not tried it recently.

Committed in r143274.

I have found problems compiling this:

For root6 +python34 build.jobs=1 it fails early:

which is the same problem found in #50007 but with root5 +gsl.

I am lost: with +gsl, GSL refuses to compile (I have tried both +clang37 and +gcc5); with -gsl something still uses some version of GSL that is not compatible, according to #49594.

Please do not comment on (correctly) closed tickets because it will likely get ignored. Instead, open a new ticket with the complete main.log file.

[cjones051073 (Chris Jones)]

As mf2k says, please start a new ticket with a complete build log following running

> sudo port clean root6
> sudo port uninstall root6
> sudo port sync
> sudo port install root6

Please do that last command with *no* variants to start with, and post the complete log (compressed if need be) to a new ticket.

cheers Chris

One final comment, looking at your first log snippet I wonder if you have 'port selected' a gcc 5 version ? If you have, undo this for the ROOT build, as there is currently a bug in the internal GSL build performed by ROOT that causes it to ignore the ports compiler settings, and find 'gcc' itself, and then fail to build as it is not compatible.

Upstream bug report is

​https://sft.its.cern.ch/jira/browse/ROOT-7782

So please also run

sudo port select gcc none

prior to the ROOT build. You can then reverse this after the build.

Note that the above issue is fixed in the latest update, I submitted over the weekend.
