+<title>Invalid use of <c>ROOT</c></title>
+<body>
+<p>
+The usage of <c>ROOT</c> is only designed to influence the way the package is
+installed (ie. into <c>ROOT</c>) - building and compiling should not depend on
+<c>ROOT</c>. As a consequence of this the usage of <c>ROOT</c> in <c>src_*</c>
+functions is not allowed.
