Switch to Geant4 10.7p02 #53

Closed civanch closed 3 years ago

civanch commented 3 years ago

The Geant4 team provide a new patch 10.7p02: https://geant4.web.cern.ch/support/download

This patch includes mainly technical fixes, so it is possible first check on regression the master. If the regression will be broken, then this version should go some testing to GEANT4 and G4VECGEOM branches first.

@civanch you want me to try it against cmsdist/master, if it works we get it as it is, if it doesn't we first put it in

https://github.com/cms-sw/cmsdist/tree/IB/CMSSW_12_0_X/geant4 https://github.com/cms-sw/cmsdist/tree/IB/CMSSW_12_0_X/geant4_vecgeom

to be fixed and then to cmsdist/master when it's fixed. Did I got it correct ?

civanch commented 3 years ago

@mrodozov , if we see no regression when compare with the master, this will not means that this patch is wrong or buggy, it simply will require more complicate statistics test. We should start from geant4 and geant4_vecgeom IBs and after will ask a validation campaign.

mrodozov commented 3 years ago

there is no difference between https://github.com/cms-sw/cmsdist/tree/IB/CMSSW_12_0_X/geant4_vecgeom and https://github.com/cms-sw/cmsdist/tree/IB/CMSSW_12_0_X/master for geant4 and vecgeom. we stopped building geant4_vecgeom because of this (maybe? don't remember) we can get the new tag on the geant4_vecgeom branch (and the non_vecgeom branch) and start building it again

civanch commented 3 years ago

@mrodozov , yes, the master and geant4_vecgeom are identical for some time since we updated master to the previous Geant4 tag. I agree, that 10.7p02 should be built in this branch. If last time this was built long ago we may not expect regression but we should not worry about too much.
