Dear Zablone, Rafael and other kind researchers,
I
tried to follow your advice and tried to use the lats4d command but error
message occurred "Command not found". Then I started to install different
libraries from http://iges.org/grads/gadoc/supplibs.html but when i
installed the zlib by following the steps:
cd $HOME/supplibs/src/
tar xvfz ./tarfiles/zlib-1.2.3.tar.gz
ln -sf zlib-1.2.3 zlib
cd zlib
./configure --prefix=$HOME/supplibs/src/zlib
make
make install
cp ./lib/libz.a $HOME/supplibs/lib
mkdir $HOME/supplibs/include/zlib
cp ./include/zlib.h $HOME/supplibs/include/zlib
following output could be seen on my terminal of the linux fedora having
version 2.0.a9 of grads after running the above mentioned commands:
[Hasan at localhost zlib]$ make
gcc -O3 -DUSE_MMAP -c -o example.o example.c
gcc -O3 -DUSE_MMAP -c -o adler32.o adler32.c

gcc -O3 -DUSE_MMAP -c -o minigzip.o minigzip.c

[Hasan at localhost zlib]$ make install
cp zlib.h zconf.h /home/Hasan/supplibs/src/zlib/include
chmod 644 /home/Hasan/supplibs/src/zlib/include/zlib.h
/home/Hasan/supplibs/src/zlib/include/zconf.h
cp libz.a /home/Hasan/supplibs/src/zlib/lib
cd /home/Hasan/supplibs/src/zlib/lib; chmod 755 libz.a
cd /home/Hasan/supplibs/src/zlib/lib; if test -f libz.so.1.2.3; then \
rm -f libz.so libz.so.1; \
ln -s libz.so.1.2.3 libz.so; \
ln -s libz.so.1.2.3 libz.so.1; \
(ldconfig || true) >/dev/null 2>&1; \
fi
cp zlib.3 /home/Hasan/supplibs/src/zlib/share/man/man3
chmod 644 /home/Hasan/supplibs/src/zlib/share/man/man3/zlib.3
[Hasan at localhost zlib]$ cp ./lib/libz.a $HOME/supplibs/lib
[Hasan at localhost zlib]$ mkdir $HOME/supplibs/include/zlib
[Hasan at localhost zlib]$ cp ./include/zlib.h $HOME/supplibs/include/zlib
After it, I tried to install libpng by using the following commands:
cd $HOME/supplibs/src/
tar xvfz tarfiles/libpng-1.2.18.tar.gz
ln -sf libpng-1.2.18 libpng
cd libpng
./configure --disable-shared --prefix=$HOME/supplibs/src/libpng
make
make install
cp ./lib/libpng12.a $HOME/supplibs/lib
mkdir $HOME/supplibs/include/libpng12
cp ./include/libpng12/*.h $HOME/supplibs/include/libpng12
But after executing the configure command, i received following message that
zlib had not been installed:

[Hasan at localhost libpng]$ make install
make: *** No rule to make target `install'. Stop.
I am very worried how to proceed now? Could you help me in this regard?
