Followup:Recompile NAGRIB

Hi again,

It occurs to me that I installed the binaries for Gempak. So a recompile is
not possible, is it.  Any suggestions now?  Re-install from source?  ARGH.

Patrick

Steve,

I sent a follow-up email right after the one you replied to, when it dawned
on me that I had installed a binary version, and a re-compile isn't
possible.  So I guess my only option is to re-install from source and reset
the parameters, then re-compile?  If there's a workaround I'd rather do
that, but that seems unlikely. Argh.

Patrick
