Michael, Bad news. I was able to successfully build, test, and install versions 1.11.7 and 1.12.0 of the UDUNITS package on Chinookfe without any problems. I did the following after logging on as user "emmerson" and copying the file udunits-1.11.7.tar.Z to my home directory: % ksh $ set -o vi $ zcat udunits-1.12.0.tar.Z | tar -xf - $ rm udunits-1.12.0.tar.Z $ cd udunits-1.12.0/src $ CC=/opt/MIPSpro/bin/cc PERL= ./configure >configure.log 2>&1 $ make >make.log 2>&1 $ more make.log ... $ make test >test.log 2>&1 $ more test.log ... $ make install >install.log 2>&1 $ more install.log ... Note that I didn't build the perl(1) interface. Look at the logfile "configure.log". Does it differ from yours? What about the file "config.log". Regards, Steve Emmerson UDUNITS Developer
