[McIDAS #SDI-707505]: McIDAS 2021 no gui?

Hi,

Exactly.

re:

One of the things that was not being done was removal of the:

~mcidas/mcidas2021/jasper/build-jasper

directory, so one of the updates in the main makefile was aimed at addressing
this.  Since this directory was not being removed during a 'make clobber',
it is possible that it staying around was the cause of libjasper.a being saved
in the build-jasper/lib directory instead of a build-jasper/lib64 directory.  
Can
you check your build so see which library subdirectory was created for your
most recent installation?

NB: this would only have changed if you did the 'make clobber' after installing
the two reworked 'makefile's and then did a full build and installation:

<as 'mcidas'>
-- extract and copy the main makefile to ~mcidas/mcidas2021/src
-- extract and copy the XCD makefile to the ~mcidas/mcidas2021/xcd/src directory
cd ~mcidas/mcidas2021/src
make clobber

make all xrd && make install.all install.xrd

OR

make all xrd install.all install.xrd

For an installation on a server, this directory is used for debug output
and some other things.  For an installation like yours and mine, this
directory is largely unused, but it being there is still needed to
match SSEC's installation procedure.

Cheers,

Tom
