[ncl-install] No package compat-libgfortran-41-4.1.2-39.el6.i686.rpm available.

Kalim,

I don't understand what you are trying to do below. You already have the software downloaded as a compressed tar file, "ncl_ncarg-6.0.0.Linux_RedHat_i686_nodap_gcc412.tar.gz". Trying to do a "yum install" on this file is not going to work.

It looks like you must have run "gunzip" and "tar -xvf" on this file at some point to extract the files, because you have files like "lib/libhlu.a".

The final two steps should be:

  1) set your NCARG_ROOT environment variable to the directory path where the "bin", "lib" and "include"  directories reside
  2) make sure $NCARG_ROOT/bin is on your search path

For information about how to set NCARG_ROOT, please see:
