Re: Build NCAR Graphics on Redhat V.5 with Intel 64(R) Fortran and C Compilers

Hello Arthur,

The NCAR Graphics group unfortunately does not have access to such a
host upon which to build/test. We do have
Linux hosts running RedHat v5, however it's a 32bit host.

Which version of the Intel compilers are you using?

A good place to start; a few additions are suggested below:

> #define CtoFLibraries -lm -lifcore
> #define CcOptions -ansi
add '-size_lp64'
> #define FcOptions
add '-size_lp64'

>

You might consider listing the directories where your X11 libraries
and header files exist; likely this will be /usr/X11R6/lib
and /usr/include/X11 but check to be sure.

Could you please include the output from 'make Everything' that shows
how utilities such as ctrans are not being built?
That would help a lot.

Sometimes, configure files need to be modified a bit to work
correctly on a host in question. As we do not have, either in-house
or access to, the myriad of configurations that are available to
users, it's not possible to "cover all bases" with configure files.
Often, seeing output from a build process helps us successfully debug
the problem, so please send that along, thanks.
