First, please note that this is _not the right place_ for your question.
The xps or root communities are probably the ones to contact.

rootcint is made.  You can probably find that spot with

  # fgrep -Ri rootcint .

Either you have command rootcint somewhere an need to fix the makefile
so it can be found.  Or you do not have rootcint at all.  In that case,
that needs fixing first.

Best,
