Jintai, The configure(1) script wasn't told what argument-passing conventions to use when compiling C functions that are callable from Fortran routines. Please try the following: 1. Go to the top-level source-directory. 2. Execute the command "make distclean". 3. Ensure that the environment variable CPPFLAGS contains the string "-DpgiFortran" (that compiler uses the same calling conventions), e.g., CPPFLAGS=-DpgiFortran; export CPPFLAGS The set of potential macros can be found in the examples of the file INSTALL in the top-level source-directory. 4. Execute the command "make". Redirect both the standard output and standard error streams to the file "make.log". 5. Execute the command "make test". Redirect both the standard output and standard error streams to the file "test.log". 6. Execute the command "make install". Redirect both the standard output and standard error streams to the file "install.log". > I failed to install udunits-1.12.4 at the 'make' step in COBALT at NCSA with > Intel fortran.
