Hello folks
This is arguably a problem with my Linux distribution, or with my expectations
of nf-config, but I think the netCDF list is probably the best place to raise
it.
Having compiled and built the ROMS ocean model from source on numerous
platforms over the years, I am now attempting to do so on a CenTOS Linux
machine on my desktop, and am running into a problem I have not encountered
before (and I have encountered many!). I have CenTOS 7.1 with up-to-date
netcdf, netcdf-devel, netcdf-fortran and netcdf-fortran-devel packages, as well
as all the dependencies found by the package manager (yum).
The ROMS build system finds the netCDF files it needs using the output of
nf-config. One of the things done by the make files is to copy the netCDF
Fortran-90 module files, netcdf.mod and typesizes.mod, to the working directory
for compilation. It looks for these in the directory specified by the output of
“nf-config –includedir”, which on this system is /usr/include. However the
netCDF module files are not there, they are in /usr/lib64/gfortran/modules.
nf-config appears to have no option to print the location of the module files.
Should it have such an option? Or should applications not ask for this
information? I presume (though I haven’t checked) that gFortran would find the
module files in their present location without having to copy them.
