Midas, version 1.9.5 of 7th October, was installed, with a few changes, on a

One of our experiments is suffering from periodic ODB corruption and I
suspected that there might be a problem with ODB locking. In the last few
days, I finally had time to read the ODB locking code, to write a little

transition connect timeout was actually only half of that specified because of an error in computing timeout arguments to the select() system

My TPC events are fairly large: 18 FEC cards * 128 channels per card * 2 Kbytes

I reworked the midas cmake files:
- install via CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX should work correctly now:
- installed are bin, lib and include - everything needed to build against the midas library

I want to report a bug in the ROOT build process that might be relevant to the midas implementation. I had an annoying failure to build root 6.18 (current
pro version) with a misleading error message about a fault in the root code. It turned out this was a cmake problem, and the error was from my cmake version
being older than 3.14, which is quite recent. Took a bit of searching to find this.

Each CMakeLists.txt should specify which version of CMake it requires. The MIDAS CMakeLists.txt requires CMake 3.1 or later.
We deliberately stayed away from fancy cutting edge CMake features in order to make midas easier to compile. On top of that,
midas is a much simpler package compared to root, so things are not so complicated.

I just tried CMake 3.1.0 and it worked with midas. So I believe all versions between 3.1.0 and 3.6.1 are ok.
Actually playing around with different versions I realized that 3.0.0 is also ok, so I changed the requirement of midas down to 3.0
