Do the following to correct the situation: 1. Go to the top-level source directory. 2. Perform steps 3 through 5 near the end of the INSTALL file. 3. Ensure that the environment variable CPPFLAGS contains the string "-DAbsoftProFortran" (this is where that C macro should be defined: in the environment prior to executing the configure script). 4. Execute the configure script. Redirect both standard output and standard error to the file "configure.log". If an error occurs, then stop and send me the file "configure.log". This will get the build environment as it should be. When you've done that, then do the following: 5. Go into the subdirectory "lib/". 6. Remove the file "utlib.i" if it exists. 7. Execute the command "make utlib.i". 8. Send me the function "utmake" from the file "utlib.i". 9. Execute the command "make utlib.o". Redirect both standard output and standard error to the file "utlib.log". Send me the file "utlib.log". -------- Steve Emmerson <http://www.unidata.ucar.edu>
