[ncl-install] Help on install NCL on my MacBook

[Yuanfu Xie]

Kevin,
After downloading the gcc/gfortran 6.3 to my /usr/local directory, I reran the nil testing command again. The error messages are different now complaining DISPLAY variable is not set. But it is set. I am not sure what is the problem. Could you give me some advice solving this problem? I attached the new error messages here for your reference. Thanks a lot.
Best regards,
Yuanfu

 Hi Yuanfu,
Did you install gcc/gfortran from the HPC SourceForge website that is linked in the NCL installation documentation? There is a known version incompatibility regarding those gcc/gfortran packages — NCL requires gcc/gfortran 6.3, but their website makes that particular version hard to find. (Unfortunately, gcc/gfortran version 7.1 linked from their homepage will not work with the currently available NCL binaries on our website.)
Could you please run the following commands?which gccgcc --versionls -l /usr/local/lib/libgomp*
Thanks,Kevin

Dear colleague,
I tried to install NCL binary files on my MacBook. I followed the steps and ran into an error message when I ran a test. See the attached command and error messages. Would you please let me know how I can fix this? Thank you.
