Re: [Cdat-discussion] Installating latest CDAT-4.0 on SUSE 9.2

[Dean N. W. <wil...@ll...>]

Hi Ag,

    We don't have access to SuSE 9.2 Linux. From the e-mail below, it 
appears that you may need to go back and make sure that all the 
development libraries were installed. Also, you may need to go back to 
an earlier version of the gcc library. I was told by some folks that 
SuSE doesn't supply the f77 compiler within its distribution. You have 
to install it yourself. Please take a look at your environment and let 
us know if you are still having problems (or not). I would like to 
include your findings in the CDAT software-portal.

Best regards,
    Dean
