[ncl-install] NCL on Intel Core 2 Quad

[Dr. Someshwar Das]

Hello,

I am trying to run some of the utilities provided for WRF Data Assimilation 
tutorial (gen_be_global_evecs.ncl) on a PC Intel Core2 Quad, having LINUX Fidora 
9.0 with ifort & icc compilers. Details  of the machine specifications are given 
at the end. I had installed  pre-compiled binary of the NCAR graphics  
(ncl_ncarg-5.0.0.Linux_i686_opendap_gcc4.tar.gz). Further, I have  installed the 
'ncl' today using,

yum -y install ncl  

I am getting a silly problem. I am not able to use the command 'ncl'. It gives 
the following error message:

ncl: error while loading shared libraries: libdap.so.6: cannot open shared 
object file: No such file or directory

However,  I am able to generate plots based on the NCAR graphics using some of  
the other WRF tutorial utilities, such as Map_plot.exe, etc. I am also  able to 
view the 'gmeta' file generated by the plot utilities by using  'idt'.

I shall appreciate your help to resolve the above error. Thank you.

Regards,
Somesh
