Did ROOT on linux AFS (/afs/rhic/opt/brahms/root/root_v3.02.02) disappear on purpose? If so I should have a fit!!!! There was a message some time ago asking to see if there were reasons not to remove it and just use root in the new and pro directories. I enumerated a number of reasons not to remove it. The response was not adequate in my mind. Furthermore I never wrote back to say it was adequate and therefore my expectation was that it would not be removed. I am sitting here trying to get some semblance of work done and I already don't have enough time to do things once which is obvious given my dismal rate of production. I get really angry when I have to do things over. Now, I suppose I should point my stuff at the root which is in /opt/brahms/new. I will then spend at least one hour compiling my brat to go to an earlier version of root (ie root v3.02.00). In addition, I am then at the mercy of whoever has a whim to put a new root into the new directory which means that I will again lose the time to compile when a new version has been inserted. On the other hand, I feel constrained against updating root in the /opt/brahms/new directory at my whim, because unlike some others (or other), I worry that my action would cause people to lose time in the middle of what they are doing which is what I am carping about and which is another form of exactly what happened to me right now. I could go on, but won't. There is not a single point in this message that I have not expressed in some form or the other before. Given that it didn't have any effect before, perhaps I have once again wasted my time by writing it, but my opinion is that this has got to stop. I will go to eat lunch and maybe I will cool down by the time I get back and decide what to do. Kris
