Hi all

I am trying to install ncl under conda environment. I had anaconda 
already installed in my system. I tried installing ncl using:
"conda create -n ncl_stable -c conda-forge ncl"

But while running ncl script I am getting the following error:

"ncl: error while loading shared libraries: libgsl.so.25: cannot open 
shared object file: No such file or directory"

Kindly find the following information regarding my installation:

****************************************************************

I have tried the following:

1. Tried installing GSL using conda "conda install -c conda-forge gsl " 
. But it didn't work, showing the same error.

2. Uninstalled, then reinstalled NCL using conda. Didn't work.

3. Tried using miniconda instead of anaconda... It also didn't work. 
Same error persists.

NOTE: I was using ncl smoothly in the same system under conda 
environment earlier. This problem started after a re installation of 
conda.

Kindly help me with this issue since I am struggling with this for some 
time now.

Looking forward to any kind of help and advice.

Thank you
Anie
