20050125: problems building netcdf-perl on IRIX 6.5

Hi Mary,

Judging from the file "make.log", there are some problems with the
netcdf-perl package on your IRIX64 system.  I'll investigate using our
IRIX64 system and get back to you.

In the meantime, could you determine what compiler flags were used to
compile the netCDF package (they have to be compatible with those used
to compile both perl(1) and netcdf-perl).

Regards,
Steve Emmerson

Dear Unidata support,

Through the SCD consulting office, I got a request from somebody in
CGD to build netcdf-perl on our supercomputer, tempest, which is an
SGI. I'm a veteran of building netCDF, but completely new to
netCDF-perl.

I followed the INSTALL instructions and tried some various
combinations with 32-bit and 64-bit options, but it always failed
during the "make" phase.

I've attached the *.log and VERSION files you requested,
and below I'll include probably more information than you need:

My environment variable settings:

   SGI_ABI=n32
   CPP_NETCDF=-I/usr/local/include
   LD_NETCDF=-L/usr/local/lib32/r4i4
   PERL_MANDIR=/usr/share/catman

"uname" output:
tempest[221] uname -a
IRIX64 tempest 6.5 07080049 IP35

perl information:

tempest[216] which perl
/usr/bin/perl
