Hi,

I have been using NCL 5.0. version and have just downloaded version 5.2.1 to
my home directory.I have downloaded the precompiled Non-OpenDap binary  file
'ncl_ncarg-5.2.1.Linux_i686_
nodap_gcc412.tar'.

I was unable to install it successfully though, because I get an error
message as follows:
ncargpath: error while loading shared libraries: requires glibc 2.5 or later
dynamic linker

I have changed the NCARG_ROOT variable in my .bashrc file. This is what my
new .bashrc file looks like :
# .bashrc

# User specific aliases and functions

# Source global definitions
if [ -f /etc/bashrc ]; then
      . /etc/bashrc
fi

*export NCARG_ROOT=/home/magnesha/NCARG*
export NETCDF=/home/jstrack/netcdf
export JASPERINC=/home/jstrack/nwprod/include
export JASPERLIB=/home/jstrack/nwprod/lib
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/intel/cc/10.0.023/lib
PATH=$PATH:/$NETCDF/bin:/$NCARG_ROOT/bin
export PATH
PATH=$PATH:/opt/intel/fc/10.0.023/bin:/opt/intel/cc/10.0.023/bin
export PATH
PATH=$PATH:/opt/intel/idb/10.0.023/bin
export PATH
PATH=/home/jstrack/mpich/bin:$PATH
export PATH

And my old .bashrc file looked like this:
# .bashrc

# User specific aliases and functions

# Source global definitions
if [ -f /etc/bashrc ]; then
      . /etc/bashrc
fi

*export NCARG_ROOT=/home/jstrack/local*
export NETCDF=/home/jstrack/netcdf
export JASPERINC=/home/jstrack/nwprod/include
export JASPERLIB=/home/jstrack/nwprod/lib
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/intel/cc/10.0.023/lib
PATH=$PATH:/$NETCDF/bin:/$NCARG_ROOT/bin
export PATH
PATH=$PATH:/opt/intel/fc/10.0.023/bin:/opt/intel/cc/10.0.023/bin
export PATH
PATH=$PATH:/opt/intel/idb/10.0.023/bin
export PATH
PATH=/home/jstrack/mpich/bin:$PATH
export PATH



Kindly tell me what I can do to avoid this error message and successfully
install NCL 5.2.1?

Thanks,

Manisha
