According to Red Hat, el5 is end-of-life, last SL 5 (SL5.11) was done in 2014, so this linux is very old. Also as it happens, I do not have access to any |

The last bits of code to switch MIDAS to C++ have been committed, see tag midas-2019-05-cxx.

Great news! I got convinced by some colleagues to switch midas to Cmake. After spending about one day, I wrote some initial CMakeLists.txt file and am so
excited about the advantages that I regret
not having done this step much earlier. Here is some information:

Got it. Now I can build the duplets of mana.o and rmana.o (and .a) - mana always without ROOT, rmana with ROOT if available. This is the same as
