Getting to the finish line with SCons, RM, and GoGui

Minutes

Attendees:  Joanne Bogart, Emmanuel Cephas, Richard Dubois, Navid Golpayegani, Heather Kelly, Karen Heidenreich

SCons Status
Navid reports that the ScienceTools are essentially ready.  One issue is that as ST packages are updated, package owners are not keeping their SConscript files up to date.  Navid is doing his best to keep those SConscript files updated.

Emmanuel reports that there are about 20 packages to go for GlastRelease SCons builds.  The remaining issue blocking completion are two externals:  OmniOrb and OBF.  Emmanuel is working on OmniOrb 4.1.2 now.  As for OBF, we desire to reorganize to fit the new directory structure to be used by SCons.  Obviously, Tracy will need to be included in this discussion.  Joanne pointed out, that at least on Linux, symbolic links could be utilized to provide a structure more convenient for SCons, and also maintain the structure closely mimicing that used by FSW. Unfortunately, symbolic links are not possible on Windows.  Later in the meeting , we further discussed OBF, and agreed that Navid and Emmanuel should go ahead an reorganize OBF as they see fit to get the GR SCons builds going.

We're currently using SCons version 1.0.1

Richard asks what version of GR are used for the builds.  Navid replied:  GR HEADs

Joanne requests that the ScienceTools externals.scons be updated to use the current version of ROOT v5.18.00c.  Navid will do that.

Heather asked Emmanuel that the 20 packages left to do for GR be documented in Confluence so we can keep track of status.
