      - Updated GDB to version 8.1;
      - Removed DMTCP from the repository;
      - Updated all LCG based projects to LCG_93a.
  • 1.0.35
    Tag to be used with the 21.X branches of atlas/athena.
    Updates in this tag:

      - Added Davix 0.6.7 as a new external to AnalysisBaseExternals and AthAnalysisExternals, to be able to use the latest HTTP based file access protocols with ROOT in the analysis releases.
      - Updated the XRootD package to build version 4.8.2. This is to fix the issue with reading files from older versions of dCache that showed up on certain grid sites. Added the build of XRootD to AthAnalysisExternals as well.
      - Removed the dmtcp package from the repository.
      - Fixed an issue introduced in 1.0.34 with the build of the .pyc modules, which would show up for some non-standard package layouts.

      - Picking up some of the externals' sources from the ATLAS webpage now;
      - Introduced "purgeBuild" steps for some of the externals;
      - Updated the way HDF5 is built;

  • 1.0.33
    Tag to be used with the 21.X branches of Athena.
    Main updates in this tag:
      - Switched AthAnalysisExternals to LCG_93, and updated the standalone packages to build the same versions of the externals as what LCG_93 has;
      - Moved a bunch of source tar files to the new ATLAS EOS webserver;
      - Cleaned up the "find modules" a bunch, improving the suppression of locally installed libraries when using an LCG release;

      - Updated many packages to perform full/clean builds when they need to build a new version of their external;
  • 2.0.2

      - Updated the "standalone externals" to be in sync with LCG_93, and updated AthAnalysisExternals to build against LCG_93;
      - Updated the CPack configuration to only build TGZ files on macOS;
      - Some small tweaks to how the python byte-code building targets would show up in IDEs like Xcode;
      - Update to atlas_add_test(...) to allow using any directory as the run directory for a given test;
      - Taught the code not to pick up .git/ directories while installing a release (relevant only for analysis repositories);
      - Added an optional NOEXEC argument to atlas_add_test(...) to allow for tests where the success of the build is the test itself;
      - Added Findlibffi.cmake to be able to set up this library for the runtime environment, which LCG_91's glib installation depends on.
  • 2.0.1
    Tag to be used with the master (22.0.1) branch of atlas/athena.
  • 2.0.0
    Retro-actively creating a 2.0.0 tag that corresponds to the "release/22.0.0" tag of atlas/athena.
  • 1.0.32
    Collecting the following updates:
      - Fixed the RPM dependency set up by FindHDF5.cmake, not to be confused by the HDF5 version that we may build ourselves;
      - Updated FindBoost.cmake to use Threads::Threads instead of CMAKE_THREAD_LIBS_INIT for setting up the pthread dependency for the Boost libraries;
      - Updated all projects to instruct CMake's FindThreads.cmake module to prefer the -pthread compiler flag instead of the -lpthread linker option.
  • 1.0.31
    Collecting the following updates:
      - Made the RPM building skip stripping binaries. To be able to use a non-standard linker during the build without the RPM building messing up the produced (static) libraries.
      - Fixed a problem that was introduced for the analysis python externals back in 1.0.26, when pip was added to the analysis releases.
      - Upgraded to lwtnn version v2.6.
      - Fixed FindHDF5.cmake so that it would find the HDF5 version provided by the analysis releases properly on lxplus.
  • 1.0.30
    Collecting the following updates:
      - Added a FindPNG.cmake module to AtlasLCG, and made sure that it would be able to find the PNG library from the LCG release;
      - Added libxml2 to AnalysisBaseExternals, and made the ROOT build make use of it;
      - Stopped the ROOT build from looking for BLAS, as that makes the build depend way too much on libraries available only on lxplus;
      - Made the dictionary generation code more robust in the CI system.
