We've installed the next release of the netCDF package here; consequently, our on-line INSTALL file is more recent. > Now, do I have to do make -e (the -e > switch seems appropriate here to overide assignments within makefiles)? No, you don't have to use the "-e" option of make(1) (the installation procedure we use completely by-passes that capability). Just follow my 3-step instructions from two emails ago (do INSTALL steps 2 through 4, set the environment variables as mentioned, do INSTALL steps 6 through 9). -------- Steve Emmerson <http://www.unidata.ucar.edu>
