@davidlt can you please include this in all the 7_0_X branches? Thanks.

Hi,

Any updates on this one?

Thanks,

@bbockelm , I am looking into it. I see that I need to patch xrootd a bit. Hopefully available tomorrow.

[davidlt]

@bbockelm , I have added 3.3.3-rc2 version to 1400 IB.

You might wanna follow up with xrootd developers to include at least the following two patches:

• xrootd-3.3.3-rc1-gcc47.patch // needed for GCC 4.7.0 and all above.
• xrootd-3.3.3-rc1-rename-macos-to-apple.patch // I thought we already agreed to include this one :/

I will close the issue once IB is ready and if it's not broken.

I will close the issue once IB is ready and if it's not broken.

Can you queue a build job with your pull request branch and test it separately?
Thanks.

[davidlt]

Building was already tested on 3 architectures.

@bbockelm , I have reverted back to 3.2.4 for now. I'll keep the issue open.

[davidlt]

Closing this until. You can re-open it once we are ready.
