Hi Pete,

Have you tried to install and use the Fedora Core RPM? 

rpm -ivh 
https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/downloads/gempak/latest/gempak-7.4.2-1.fc26.x86_64.rpm

For the source build, the message /usr/lib64/libpng16.so.16: undefined 
reference to `inflateValidate@ZLIB_1.2.9 seems to indicate a conflict between 
system libpng and GEMPAK libpng (built as part of extlibs).

What is returned by these commands:

1) ldd /usr/lib64/libpng16.so.16
2) rpm -qa |grep libpng
3) rpm -qa |grep zlib
