I have no idea what is going on here. .1.0/lib netcdf.lo ncvalues.lo ../libsrc4/libnetcdf.la libtool: link: tpldir=3DTemplate.dir libtool: link: rm -rf Template.dir libtool: link: pgcpp --prelink_objects --instantiation_dir Template.dir = netcdf.o ncvalues.o pgcpp-Error-Unknown switch: --instantiation_dir make[2]: *** [libnetcdf_c++.la] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/gpfsm/dnbsrc/other/netcdf/src/4.0.1/cxx' Where is this --instantiatio_dir option coming from? I never heard of it before. Do you need the C++ API? I suspect that you don't - it's out of date, and a new one has been developed and will be in the 4.2 release. So I suggest that you rerun configure with --disable-cxx, and build and test netCDF without the C++ API.
