[ncl-install] troubles compiling NCL with PGI and gcc on CentOS

[Tiziana Cherubini]

Aloha,

I am trying to compile the ncl/ncarg graphics on our server running CentOS (uname -a => Linux io.ifa.hawaii.edu 2.6.32-279.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Jun 22 12:19:21 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux), with gcc (v4.4.6 ), and pgi (v12.9). 

I set up the configuration file to look like:

/*
*  Description:  This file contains all the directives needed to
*                tell ymake how to build NCARG/NCL on a 64-bit
*                LINUX system using the Portland Group compilers.
*
*                Copy this file to the LINUX file in this directory
*                before you start the NCL/NCARG build.

#define ExtraExportFlags -Wl,--export-dynamic

#define ArchRecLibSearch -L/usr/X11R6/lib64
#define ArchRecIncSearch -I/usr/X11R6/include

FC = $(F77)


But I get undefined references to the fortran libraries (please see below for an extract of the make log file). I believe the problem is in the CtoFlibaries… perhaps I shouldn't be using the  -pgf90libs ? Any suggestion on what to change in this respect would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you very much,

Tiziana.
