[ncl-install] NCAR Graphics (Version 5.0.0) Installation Problem

[Dennis Shea]

Lingyan,

It sounds like the HDF include files were not installed in an "hdf" subdirectory as instructed in the NCL installation home page. Please see:

http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Download/build_from_src.shtml#HDF-4

and pay special attention to the "--includedir" option that is required.

FYI: we will be releasing V5.1.0 in 1 or 2 weeks, which has several new features (http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/future_release.shtml).
