Minutes
- Announcement

- Review of Minutes from the Last Software Meeting:
- Mark will switch the BMS_OSNAME by Monday. He promised to supply the documentation and the necessary scripts. Alex volunteered to test it beforehand.
- No progress with the halld_amp repository
- JANA2
- Nathan updated his halld_recon branch
- Implemented the inspector in Jana(1). Serious comparisons can start now.
- Status and plans for other package updates: OS8, ROOT, Geant4, ...
- Geant4.10 (golden release) is the next step, but requires a non-standard compiler. This can be handled by build_scripts, but we should supply documentation for developers
- Simon started looking into the OS8 issues. One has to use
scons-3 install PYTHONCOMMAND=python3 SHOWBUILD=1
on jlabl5. This will be the next FAQ of the fortnight. - Moving all python code to python3 and dropping support for python2 is also a middle-term goal
- New root versions are currently not discussed, but would be facilitated by compiler/python upgrades
- Review of recent issues and pull requests:
- Review of recent discussion on the GlueX Software Help List (all)
- Matt promised to create a halld_recon issue for a bug in FCALLEDTree
- Action Items:
- Request to install cuda libraries on interactive node to compile amptools and halld_sim (Alex)
- Request to install valgrind on jlabl5 (Simon)
