Boost

libs/iostreams/src/bzip2.cpp:19:56: error: bzlib.h: No such file or directory

No dev version apparently: 

bvdb@rplay18:offline-test> rpm -qa|grep -i bz
pygpgme-0.1-18.20090824bzr68.el6.x86_64
bzip2-libs-1.0.5-7.el6_0.x86_64
bzip2-libs-1.0.5-7.el6_0.i686
bzip2-1.0.5-7.el6_0.x86_64

Skip it for now and continue with 

/dybinst trunk external  clhep cmake gccxml gsl mysql suds zsi ROOT xercesc hepmc heppdt openmotif openscientistvis geant4 setuptools nose xmlnose ipython more mysql_python django data SQLAlchemy virtualenv

While that is in progress Chris has installed the dev packages so need to come back to this.

Okay, OpenMotif failed, so continue testing boost: 

rm -r external/build/LCG/boost_1_38_0
./dybinst trunk external boost

Succeeds.

OpenMotif

We should really get rid of this dinosaur. Anyways, it is failing due to missing some X11 devel chunks: 

I18List.c:23:28: error: X11/bitmaps/gray: No such file or directory

I think the missing package is "xorg-x11-xbitmaps". Reported to Chris.

After this got installed, openmotif build succeeds.

Gaudi

Now all externals are built. Relax is okay but Gaudi fails at an old "friend": 

../src/component/XMLFileCatalog.cpp:25:23: error: uuid/uuid.h: No such file or directory

It looks like SL6 has split off the UUID parts into packages like libuuid*. I've asked for the -devel version to get installed.

Done

Build succeeds

Nose Tests

GenTools + DetSim - output ... FAIL

Ran out of time on the slower rplay18 which led to subsequent failures that needed the output file from this test.
