20010724: netcdf-3.5.0 installation error under Cygwin

E.John Joseph,

Would you please do the following:

    1.  Go to the top-level source directory of your netCDF package.

    2.  Perform steps 3 through 6 described near the end of the file
        "INSTALL.html".

    3.  Please be sure to send me the file "config.log".

Regards,
Steve Emmerson   <http://www.unidata.ucar.edu>

> I failed in installing netcdf-3.5.0 on Cygwin (Cygwin is a free Unix 
> emulation package for Windows). I was in the process of installing
> GMT (Generic Mapping Tools- a free software). An automated installion
> is carried out but failed at one point showing an error message:
> make:*** No rule to make target 'macros.make'
> 
> Following shows the Log file created during the installation process.
> It stops after:
> checking if Fortran "byte" is C "signed char"... 
> It seems problem with netcdf installation. Please advice me to rectify
> this problem.
