Hello -

I am trying to install nco via fink on MAC OS 10.3.6 and this requires
udunits. I have tried many things suggested out on the web, but it seems to
get stuck on the utlib.c file no matter what I do. Can you give me some
suggestions? Below is the information that I believe you need to get started
from an attempt to manually install.

Thanks, 
Galen McKinley

Hello again - 

I've got this worked out. I found and installed the just-released
udunits-1.12.3 (unstable) with fink and then I could install nco. And it now
works.
