Hi Luis,
I apologize for not being able to respond to your email before now,
but I just returned from Costa Rica on Wednesday night, and I was
then involved in committee meetings all day Thursday and half a day
today.

>mcinst.sh: ERROR: cannot find 'mcinst.tar' or 'mcinst.tar.Z'
Please do not use mcinst.sh to build Unidata McIDAS. Instead, do the
following:
1) define all Unix environmnent variables needed for McIDAS in the 'mcidas'
account. Please reference the Unidata McIDAS web pages to see the
list of environment variables you need to define, and how to define
them:
Unidata McIDAS HomePage
http://my.unidata.ucar.edu/content/software/mcidas/index.html
Installation and Configuration
http://my.unidata.ucar.edu/content/software/mcidas/2003/index.html
Initial Preparations
http://my.unidata.ucar.edu/content/software/mcidas/2003/mcx/prepare_mcx.html
Prepare the mcidas and mcadde Accounts
http://my.unidata.ucar.edu/content/software/mcidas/2003/mcx/mcxacct.html
A second page you need to look at for additional environment variables to
define (referenced off of the 'Prepare the mcidas and mcadde Accounts' page)
is:
Notes and Warnings
http://my.unidata.ucar.edu/content/software/mcidas/2003/mcx/warnings_mcx.html#netcdf
2) after the environment variables presented in the two pages above are
defined, then you build the McIDAS distribution by:
<as 'mcidas'>
cd mcidas203
make all VENDOR=-gcc
You did not say in your message if you are trying to build using gcc
and f2c, or if you are trying to build using gcc and g77. If you are
using the gcc/g77 combination, the make invocation to build McIDAS
is slightly different:
<as 'mcidas'>
cd mcidas203
make all VENDOR=-g77
Please let me know if you continue to have problems building McIDAS on
your Sun SPARC system.
Cheers,
Tom
