[ncl-install] WPS 3.2.1 does not produce plotgrids/plotfmt/anyone have gcc44/gfortran44 compiled NCL 5.2.1

[Mary Haley]

Hi Greg,

Can you provide the error messages from your compilation? We don't have 5.2.1 compiled with gcc 4.4.x, unfortunately, but we do have a binary for (Debian) gcc 4.3.2 which might work better than 4.1.2.

However, if I can see the compilation error, I might be able to provide a solution without you having to reinstall or build from source code.

In the manual, it says “if the plotfmt.exe or the plotgrids.exe programs are missing, probably the NCAR Graphics path is set incorrectly”, however, if I do `ls $NCARG_ROOT` I get:

If not, does anyone have a script that builds it out premised upon having the correct prerequisites? If so, it would be greatly appreciated as I could easily modify it to suit my needs.
