Description (last modified by mojca (Mojca Miklavec))

Hi all, I was having trouble compiling ROOT6 manually, and as I have MacPorts installed for other libs, I decided to try ROOT6 from MacPorts. It actually compiles without errors, but as soon as I open it (i.e. I type in "root" and press enter), I get a seg fault:

 *** Break *** segmentation violation
 Generating stack trace...
 0x0000000105b7e962 in TROOT::LoadClass(char const*, char const*, bool) (in libCore.6.so) + 194
 0x0000000105b7b960 in TROOT::TROOT(char const*, char const*, void (**)()) (in libCore.6.so) + 4848
 0x0000000105b79ed9 in ROOT::GetROOT1() (in libCore.6.so) + 89
 0x0000000105b8077b in _GLOBAL__I_a (in libCore.6.so) + 27

 0x00007fff6c355dba in <unknown function>
 0x00007fff6c352a62 in <unknown function>
 0x00007fff6c3529eb in <unknown function>
 0x00007fff6c3528f6 in <unknown function>

The splash screen comes up and stays up, then it goes away if I click on it. I am on OSX 10.9.2. I DO have another version of root (5.34) in a directory, but it's not "installed" in any system folders, it lives entirely in a folder in ~/Software.

The details of my previous compilation issues are here: http://root.cern.ch/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=18143&p=77299#p77299 including the seg fault printout. I tried installing the +debug variant and running it in lldb, but the process ends with error 139 and I can't do a "backtrace" command.

As suggested in the other root6 ticket, I tried checking to see if all the provided object and binary files were pointing to the right locations. Here's how I did it:

for abin in `port contents root6|grep 'bin'`; do otool -L $abin|grep -v '/opt/local/.*'|grep -v '/usr/lib/.*'|grep -v '/System/Library/,*'; done
for aso in `port contents root6|grep '.*\.so'`; do otool -L $aso|grep -v '/opt/local/.*'|grep -v '/usr/lib/.*'|grep -v '/System/Library/,*'; done

Both commands printed nothing, meaning that when I run otool -L on all *.so and .*bin.* files, all the returned locations are in one of: /opt/local, /usr/lib, or /System/Library.

Extra info, output of clang -v:
