Dear MET_Help,

     I was trying to install MET 5.0 in my system and it shows following
error during "make install". Error shows :

I have attached Makefile, make log and configure log. Is that anyway
related to netcdf library, do I need to update it ? Also, how to enable
GRIB2 enabled installation for 5.0 (in 4.1, there was option for switch on
or off for GRIB2).

Thanks,
 Partha

Subject: Installing MET 5.0
From: John Halley Gotway

Partha,

Thanks for downloading the latest release of MET.  I see that you're
having
trouble configuring/compiling it.  We switched over to using autoconf
for
building MET version 5.0.  In previous versions, you edited a file by
hand
and then typed "make".  Now, you run the configure script.  Please
read
through the top-level met-5.0/README file for instructions about
building
MET.

You can set several environment variables to tell the configure script
where to find the dependent libraries.  For example, MET_NETCDF tells
it
where to find NetCDF.  Since you didn't set MET_NETCDF, I'm guessing
it's
finding a NetCDF build on your system that doesn't include the C++
interface, and that's why it can't find the file "netcdf.hh".

Based on what you sent me last month, it looks like you have NetCDF
built
here:
   /home/pbhattacharjee/Netcdf/netcdf-4.0

You can set the environment variable like this:
   setenv MET_NETCDF  /home/pbhattacharjee/Netcdf/netcdf-4.0

Also, you enable support for GRIB2 with the "--enable-grib2" argument
to
configure.

But this is all explained in that README file.

Hope that helps.

Thanks,
John Halley Gotway
