# 200414: Software Meeting
Agenda: https://indico.cern.ch/event/909144/
Connected: Andre, Matthias, Marko, Placido, Ulrike, Valentin, Philipp,
## Long lived particles
* Update with ctau=6.9mm samples
* Fix for "reconstructable" definition, select with nHits>=3 instead of >=0
* Should use MCParticle hits instead of hits of reconstructed tracks
* PR: need to have a look at the background
* EB: Already some look by Cecilia
* US: Get number of background events to be able to optimise selection, e.g. against significance
* PR See last presentation by Emilia
* US: Duplicates for low_pt pion tracks, some way to reduce them?
* Compare track parameters to reduce duplicates
## MC Generators
## Simulation
## Reconstruction
### Tracking
### Particle Flow
* MW: discussed what goes into the data file, and use Matthias' settings as defaults as more general
* Default Plots: JE Response, JE Resolution, Polar and Azimuthal angle resolution
* Optional Plots: MET, Di_Jet mass resolution plots
* Need to align use of histogram, could be finished this week
## Infrastructure
* Need to configure LCG_97 based installation tarball to CVMFS
* Could not use cvmfs based installation
* /cvmfs/clicdp.cern.ch/software/LCG/97/x86_64-centos7-gcc8-opt/
* Same as 97 minus DD4hep and LCIO
* Can be also in SFT cvmfs? Valentin to ask Gerri
* TODO: remove also gaudi from there
* TODO: layered view: select packages (Geant4, ROOT,...), let it create the links
## iLCDirac
* New version coming ASAP
* DiracOS v1r11
## key4hep
* Base on Gaudi branch
* https://gitlab.cern.ch/gaudi/Gaudi/-/merge_requests/986
* https://gitlab.cern.ch/clemenci/Gaudi/-/tree/cmake-modernisation
* dev3 or dev4 lcg builds
* Once we have an idea, deploy to key4hep
### podio/edm4hep/core/nightlies
* Key4hep builds: added spack mirror over http
* cvmfs publisher as gitlab runner?
* Depends who owns the publisher
* tagging scripts: https://github.com/iLCSoft/iLCInstall
* scripts/ilcsofttagger.py
### MarlinWrapper
* Marlinprocessor is running,
* but segmentation fault at the end of Gaudi under investigation
* pointing at libMarlin.so
