[ncl-install] X11 problem on install

[brian vant-hull]

Thanks for the tips.  At least I know what direction
to head.

I tried adding /usr/lib64 to my path, cleaning out the
*.o files and recompiling, but it didn't work.  I get

 plotgrids.o -L/usr/local/lib -lncarg -lncarg_gks
-lncarg_c -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lX11
-L/usr/pgi/linux86-64/5.2/lib -lpgftnrtl -lpgc
-L/usr/lib64 -lg2c
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lX11

So it's still using /usr/X11R6/lib.

the 'configure' file seems to apply only to netcdf,
the configure.wps file has a line

NCARG_LIBS2     =       -L${PGI}/linux86-64/5.2/lib
-lpgftnrtl -lpgc \
                        -L/usr/lib64 -lg2c

is this the one I change?  If so it already lists
lib64.  You may need to get very specific with me
because i don't really know my way around the 'make'
syntax.

Thanks again.  

-Brian.
