Hmm. What compiler did you use to build Paw from CERN CVS? Maybe this is a new bug in gcc 4.0. I've just tested Paw 2005.05.09-3 on Sid (where it breaks as you say) and 2004.11.04-3 on Sarge (where it works fine). Neither upstream nor I changed any of the Paw ntuple internals between those versions. Right now I am building 2005.05.09-3 on Sarge with gcc/g77 3.3 to see what happens. For what it's worth, gdb says that the breakage happens in h_load_nt() in the file pawlib/paw/ntuple/qp/qp_hbook_if.c -- looking at this file, I don't think lapack is to blame. In the meantime you ought to be able to use the version of Paw from Sarge as a workaround, although this may be annoying to install since it uses different versions of several libraries. regards, -- Kevin B.
