Hi Mike, re: gfortran versions on "older" Ubuntu installations > My dev environment: GNU Fortran (Ubuntu 7.3.0-16ubuntu3) 7.3.0 > > A few others I happen to be logged into attm: GNU Fortran (Ubuntu > 7.5.0-3ubuntu1~18.04) 7.5.0 I feel confident that McIDAS would have built on these "older" systems without the need to modify 'mccomp.sh' or 'mcar.sh'. re: > I'm "around" but will be in some meetings for most of the afternoon from > here on out. Still let me know if you need anything but it may take me a > bit to respond. After doing a bunch of Googling (all for naught), I came up with a modification to mccomp.sh that I believe will work in both of our environments. I am testing it right now on my development machine, and everything is working fine. I'd like to try it in your Ubuntu VM environment as a sanity check, but I don't want to blow away the build that is there before getting your OK. The procedure I would follow is: <as 'mcidas' on your Ubuntu VM> cd $MCSRC make clobber -- check the mod in mcar.sh; I implemented what is likely the same in my setup -- make the code mod in mccomp.sh make make install.mcxall Cheers, Tom -- **************************************************************************** Unidata User Support UCAR Unidata Program (303) 497-8642 P.O.
