That should rid you of your 6.1.2 install. Then install by your method of choice. I guarantee if you go through the conda install process as documented, then source activate the environment, it won't conflict with 6.1.2 if you still really need it. Be aware that anaconda or preferably miniconda will install a python environment in your home dir, so you will have to export that python environment to your path. I do this on a per terminal basis using an alias, then source activate the ncl environment. That way, miniconda python doesn't hijack my python environment. Anaconda/minconda will offer you the option to let it prepend itself to your path. I just say no here, because I have another python environment I choose to use for the time being by default.<br clear="none"><br clear="none">Kevin Havener<br clear="none"><br clear="none"><br clear="none">-----Original Message-----<br clear="none">From: JP Kalb [mailto:<a shape="rect" ymailto="mailto:jpkalb1990@yahoo.com" href="mailto:jpkalb1990@yahoo.com">jpkalb1990@yahoo.com</a>] <br clear="none">Sent: Tuesday, January 17, 2017 3:24 PM<br clear="none">To: HAVENER, KEVIN F GS-12 USAF ACC 14 WS/WXED <<a shape="rect" ymailto="mailto:kevin.havener@us.af.mil" href="mailto:kevin.havener@us.af.mil">kevin.havener@us.af.mil</a>>; Mary Haley <<a shape="rect" ymailto="mailto:haley@ucar.edu" href="mailto:haley@ucar.edu">haley@ucar.edu</a>><br clear="none">Cc: <a shape="rect" ymailto="mailto:ncl-install@ucar.edu" href="mailto:ncl-install@ucar.edu">ncl-install@ucar.edu</a><br clear="none">Subject: Re: [ncl-install] NCL Ubuntu<br clear="none"><br clear="none">Hi all, <br clear="none">I think you might have misunderstood me since the export NCARG_ROOT did nothing at all to fix the problem and I had tried removing and re-installing but every time I do it still is giving me the 6.1.2.<br clear="none"> <br clear="none">JP Kalb<br clear="none"><br clear="none"><br clear="none">On Tuesday, January 17, 2017 5:48 AM, "HAVENER, KEVIN F GS-12 USAF ACC 14 WS/WXED" <<a shape="rect" ymailto="mailto:kevin.havener@us.af.mil" href="mailto:kevin.havener@us.af.mil">kevin.havener@us.af.mil</a>> wrote:<br clear="none"><br clear="none"><br clear="none"><br clear="none">I just installed the Ubuntu ncl-ncarg package on my Ubuntu laptop to see what would happen.

You would want the location of your 6.3 to be listed before the location of 6.1.2.

If you really need both versions then you need to de-conflict the two installations. If you use the commands that Mary gave you, you will see that your Ubuntu is trying to use the 6.1.2 version. I have successfully used the Ubuntu installed version and a newer version in the past but I forget the mojo. It does matter where and when you set your NCARG_ROOT. One possible error: assuming bash, you set it in your .bash_profile, not your .bashrc. In this situation your login shell knows NCARG_ROOT, but no other terminal you open will. So either don't set it in .bash_profile or have bash_profile source .bashrc as the last act in your .bash_profile.<br clear="none"><br clear="none">I think also if you do the 'env' command below, I think you will find that the Ubuntu package sets some other environment variables that are similar to, but different than 'NCARG_ROOT'. You will need to figure out how to unset those.
