My first recommendation would be to build and install netCDF-4 from the current version, using the --disable-netcdf-4 configure option if you only need the netCDF-3 features and functions for wgrib2: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/downloads/netcdf/ After that is installed, there ought to be a way to specify for wgrib2 to use that installed library, but you would need to determine that from the wgrib2 installation instructions. Alternatively, we may be able to help with the netcdf-3.6.3 problem, but would need more information, including the config.log file generated in the netCDF source directory and all the output from "make check" for netCDF. You might get a quicker or better answer by seeking assistance from the wgrib2 developers or community, where this problem may have encountered and solved before. --Russ Russ Rew UCAR Unidata Program address@hidden http://www.unidata.ucar.edu Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: GWZ-530194 Department: Support netCDF Priority: Normal Status: Closed
