The CPPFLAGS macro must be set before the configure script is executed.
Try the following:
1. Go to the top-level source-directory.
2. Execute the command "make distclean".
3. Set you environment variable as before.
4. Ensure that the CPPFLAGS environment variable contains the
string "-Df2cFortran".
5. Execute the configure script.
6. Execute the command "make"
7. Execute the command "make install".
The problem is that I was using the INSTALL document on the
web which is out of date:
http://my.unidata.ucar.edu/content/software/udunits/INSTALL.txt
It listed the flags for Linux as:
linux_2.0-i586 (Sunshine):
CPPFLAGS=-Df2cFortran
CC=/usr/bin/cc
PERL=/usr/bin/perl # version 5.003 with EMBED
The distribution INSTALL file (version 1.12.3 from the CD from
the workshop) shows:
linux_2.4-i686 (Daffy):
CPPFLAGS='-DNDEBUG -Df2cFortran'
CC=/usr/bin/gcc
CFLAGS='-O -fno-builtin'
PERL=/usr/bin/perl
The Web docs should be updated to be in sync with the release.
Also, as I mentioned, the INSTALL file does not (that I could
find) include any mention that you may need superuser priveliges
to install the PERL module.
