[GEMPAK #KCB-576172]: Error Compiling Gempak 6.2.0

Ryan,

I see the error in your make.out file:

checking how to run the C++ preprocessor... /lib/cpp
configure: error: in `/home/gempak/NAWIPS/extlibs/xslt/libxslt':
configure: error: C++ preprocessor "/lib/cpp" fails sanity check
See `config.log' for more details.

which suggests that you may not have gcc-c++ installed on your system.  you'll 
need to make sure you have glibc, glibc-headers and glibc-devel installed.  
check to see if gcc and cpp modules are installed (and check for glibc) with:

rpm -qa | grep gcc

rpm -qa | grep glibc

rpm -qa | grep cpp
