The DST file will need to be regenerated using the latest version of the DST maker. At the moment, every time an update to the DST maker or the HpsEvent API is made, the DST files need to be regenerated. Otherwise, you will get an error similar to what is shown above. I can "fix" this error by increment the class version number every time a change occurs, but this might cause conflicts elsewhere. Once we decide to make a 1.0 release of the DST maker, this should no longer be an issue since most people will just use the tagged release. Until then, any update to the DST maker or the HpsEvent API will also require regenerating all files. > I converted the working file into ROOT DST by means of the "dst_maker".

The LCIO file that you are trying to generate a DST file from is very old and is likely missing several collections required by the DST maker. This might be causing the seg faults but I wont be able to verify this until I see the errors. > > Now, I tried to look into the obtained ROOT file, there are some tracks > and EC hits, but there are no "_particles" (except for, I guess, input > mc_particles). > This is likely due to the fact that the LCIO recon file is missing all of the ReconParticle collections.
