Hi Lifeng,

   thanks. Sorry it sounded like trying to duplicate the old bug #557017. 
Than one was concering the pretty old version of ROOT and as I can see the 
current packages are in significantly better shape. I didn't even think 
about the old bug would be yet considered, because the current list of
missing files would be most probably quite different from the old one 
(which in turn means the bug #557017 can be closed as obsolete in favour 
of this new bugreport).

BTW: Obviously some of the "not installed" files (especially the
      third-party libraries) are just invalid links. Looks like ROOT
      creates them even though they are disabled during configuration...

Best regards,
Pavel
