The file "install.log" contains the following:
Making `install' in directory /home/macwillm/netcdf-3.5.1/src/libsrc
make[2]: Entering directory `/home/macwillm/netcdf-3.5.1/src/libsrc'
test -d .../lib || mkdir .../lib
mkdir: cannot create directory `.../lib': No such file or directory
The directory ".../lib" couldn't be created because the relative
pathname contains one too may periods.
The file "macros.make" contains the following:
prefix = ...
"prefix" is the root of the installation directory hierarchy (it will
contain the installation directories "bin", "lib", etc.). The relative
patname value contains one too many periods. This could happen if, for
example, the configure script was invoked as
./configure --prefix=...
Please tell me if this is not the case; otherwise, please do the
following:
1. Performs steps 2 through 5, described at
http://my.unidata.ucar.edu/content/software/netcdf/INSTALL.html#ReportingProblems
2. Execute the configure script as described in step 6 at the above
URL. Because the default value for the "-prefix" option is
"..", it is not necessary to specify this option if that is the
intended root of your installation (as it appears to be).
3. Performs steps 7 through 9, described at the above URL.
Please let me know if this helps.
Regards,
Steve Emmerson
