[Met_help] error in installation of MET V2.0

[Paul Oldenburg]

Balachandran,

Several years and versions of MET have passed since PGI 6 was tested.  We are
not sure what issues, if any, you will experience.  If you have trouble with
that compiler, you might want to consider using the GNU compilers.  They are
free to download if you do not already have them.  Good luck.
