    Hi Christian, 
    
    Thanks for fixing the Makefile stuff. 
    
    RPM packages for ROOT?  Didn't know they existed.  I would probably need a
    SRPM in any case--unfortunately, the PPC build always seems to be left
    behind.   However, I did build ROOT (and BRAT) into /usr/local -- This 
    seems to be a
    pretty clean way of making all the packages readily available.
    
    Sorry about the lock...I didn't think things had  gotten that far. While
    updating my systems to the latest brat, brag, ..., I decided to also
    configure an intel box here with the latest redhat. I thought going
    mainstream would be easier--Wrong!  Got ARLA installed all right, after
    discovering this bit about RedHat shipping a compiler that won't compile
    the kernel...(guess one really should read the README files...), but it 
    looks
    like cvs won't run correctly with this configuration.  My guess is that 
    I have
    a buggy kernel, or there is a problem with the latest ARLA (0.35.5). In 
    any case,
    when doing a cvs checkout brat, I get
    
    getcvs [checkout aborted]: cannot seek to end of history file: 
    /afs/rhic/brahms/BRAHMS_CVS/CVSROOT/history: Invalid argument
    
    Any suggestions other than to update the kernel, or downgrade ARLA?  I 
    checked
    that I do have the latest cvs rpms.  I also installed an earlier cvs 
    release and had the
    same problem...
