Hi, I haven't tested much on Linux beyond Ubuntu 12.04, but we have seen some weird behavior with the netcdf build system on machines where the 'm4' package is not installed. If you go through the configure/make logs for netcdf carefully, you may see an error to the effect "m4 not found"? A workaround which seemed to fix the problem for us is to 'apt-get install m4', clean out the build directory, and try again. It's a bummer that the netcdf package seems to require m4... it really shouldn't. Seems like a bug in their build system. -- John ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Sponsored by Intel(R) XDK Develop, test and display web and hybrid apps with a single code base.
