Today I installed Dumbbench via 'cpanm': ##### $ cpanm Dumbbench --> Working on Dumbbench Fetching http://www.cpan.org/authors/id/S/SM/SMUELLER/Dumbbench-0.09.tar.gz ...

And, just to complicate matters further, SOOT depends on Alien::ROOT, whose installation failed due to external dependencies.

Following instructions from http://root.cern.ch/drupal/content/build-prerequisites, I conducted several rounds of 'sudo apt-get install'. However, installation of ROOT ultimately failed as follows: ##### gcc -m64 -O3 -DNO_DEBUG_OUTPUT -fPIC -I/usr/include/freetype2 -c asfont.c -o asfont.o asfont.c:67:33: fatal error: freetype/freetype.h: No such file or directory # include <freetype/freetype.h> ^ compilation terminated. make[1]: *** [asfont.o] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/jkeenan/.cpanm/work/1401489372.2868/Alien-ROOT-v5.34.3.1/root/graf2d/asimage/src/libAfterImage' make: *** [graf2d/asimage/src/libAfterImage/libAfterImage.a] Error 2 Build failed while running 'make': 512 at inc/Alien/ROOT/Builder.pm line 165. -> FAIL Installing Alien::ROOT failed.

Which is why, I believe that module is entirely undocumented. There's a box_plot method on a benchmark that is documented as requiring SOOT. The reason why SOOT is not a declared dependency otherwise is precisely because it's that hard to install. I deemed that not work asking of people who want a neat benchmarking tool.
