The updated ROOT instructions on DAQwiki
https://www.triumf.info/wiki/DAQwiki/index.php/ROOT
now explain how to use "thisroot" to select the right version of the package.

The preliminary version of the .bashrc blurb looks like this
(a couple of flaws:
1) identification of CentOS7 is incomplete - please send me a patch
2) there should be a check for root-config already in the PATH, as on Ubuntu, the ROOT package may be installed in /usr and root-
config may be already in the path - please send me patch).

if [ `uname -i` == "i386" ]; then 
    . /daq/daqshare/olchansk/root/root_v5.34.01_SL62_32/bin/thisroot.sh 
    true 
elif [ `lsb_release -r -s` == "7.1.1503" ]; then 
    #. /daq/daqshare/olchansk/root/root_v5.34.32_SL66_64/bin/thisroot.sh 
    true 
else 
     . /daq/daqshare/olchansk/root/root_v5.34.32_SL66_64/bin/thisroot.sh 
     true 
fi
