The problem is that with the new CMake configuration we create the directory DaVinciDev_54.1 in the Ganga input sandbox, but lb-run DaVinciDev/54.1 is not able to find it.

Possible solutions:

  • change the generation of the input sandbox to create DaVinciDev_v54r1
  • change the implementation of the run script to use lb-run --path-to-project to bypass the lookup
  • change lb-run to match DaVinciDev_54.1
