[netCDF #QBM-450894]: Re: requesting netcdf support - ifort 32 bit installation is failing

Hi Steve,

We had problems with support mail yesterday and are finally getting caught up 
after fixing the support system.

From the config.log you sent, I see the following error

The appropriate library should be in /usr/lib/libm.a, but you might check if 
that is a 32-bit or 64-bit library and if there's another place to look for the 
32-bit version.  It may also be trying to link with a shared library such as 
/usr/lib/libm.so.2, so you could try specifying a -static or -i-static flag to 
link statically with /usr/lib/libm.a.

Another user has had success with specifying FFLAGS="-i-static" for this kind 
of problem:
