The above message contained the following:

Have you tested the netCDF/Udunits build on RH9 ( Eldora )

The latest netCDF package builds OK on our Red Hat 9 system:

   $ uname -a
   Linux rodney.unidata.ucar.edu 2.4.20-13.7-athlon-smp #3 SMP Tue Jun 3 
10:36:25 MDT 2003 i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux
   $ cat VERSION
   3.5.1-beta13
   $ CC=/usr/bin/gcc CPPFLAGS='-DNDEBUG -Df2cFortran' CFLAGS=-O FC=/usr/bin/g77 
FFLAGS='-O -Wno-globals' CXX=/usr/bin/g++ ./configure &>configure.log
   $ make &>make.log
   $ make test &>test.log
   $ less test.log # it looks OK

The UDUNITS package (minus the Perl extension) builds OK on the same system:

   $ cat VERSION
   1.12.1
   $ CPPFLAGS=-Df2cFortran CC=/usr/bin/gcc PERL= ./configure &>configure.log
   $ make &>make.log
   $ make test &>test.log
   $ less test.log # it looks OK

The compiler versions are:

   $ /usr/bin/gcc --version
   gcc (GCC) 3.2.2 20030222 (Red Hat Linux 3.2.2-5)
   ...
   $ /usr/bin/g77 --version
   GNU Fortran (GCC 3.2.2 20030222 (Red Hat Linux 3.2.2-5)) 3.2.2 20030222 (Red 
Hat Linux 3.2.2-5)
   ...

Robb...

No offense to anybody, but installing a software product now-days should not
have to be as painful as it is.

For how many multi-platform software packages is Enils responsible?
