RHEL4 is based on fedora 3, so it is better to use rpms for FC3. In the
FC-5/FC-6 branches there is a dependency on wgrib which won't be
satisfied.

Why didn't you use the centos rebuild of the fedora core 3 grads rpm at
http://centos.karan.org/el4/extras/stable/x86_64/RPMS/?

Strange thing is that in the rpm there is no grads command, but gradsc,
and it is 1.9b4. So I guess you're using a 1.8 grads on your path.
