[gradsusr] Trying to build GrADS on Cray Suse Linux

A google search for “ac_nonexistent.h" reveals that might be a deliberate feature of the autoconfigure tools. See, for example, https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/autoconf/2011-03/msg00009.html.

To find out why grib2 is not enabled, open your config.log in a text editor and search for the string ‘grib2’. Here’s a block of text where I find it in my config.log that has succeeded:

configure:19014: checking grib2.h usability
configure:19014: /usr/bin/gcc -c -fPIC -I/opt/local/include  -I/Users/jma/grads/supplibs/include  conftest.c >&5
configure:19014: $? = 0
configure:19014: result: yes
configure:19014: checking grib2.h presence
configure:19014: /usr/bin/gcc -E -I/Users/jma/grads/supplibs/include  conftest.c
configure:19014: $? = 0
configure:19014: result: yes
configure:19014: checking for grib2.h
configure:19014: result: yes
configure:19016: checking for main in -lgrib2c
configure:19035: /usr/bin/gcc -o conftest -fPIC -I/opt/local/include  -I/Users/jma/grads/supplibs/include  -L/Users/jma/grads/supplibs/lib  conftest.c -lgrib2c  -lm   >&5
configure:19035: $? = 0
configure:19044: result: yes

Do the same for ‘netcdf’ or any other library you need — you’ll find the similar gcc calls to compile conftest.c (a tiny program created by the configure script that loads the desired header file or library) followed by the errors that gcc returned when it failed. Depending on the error messages, you may need to adjust your $CFLAGS or $CPPFLAGS or $LIBS environnment variables.

In the config.log file I am seeing a number of these:

configure:7333: gcc -E -I/lustre/scratch/software/supplibs/include conftest.c
conftest.c:9:10: fatal error: ac_nonexistent.h: No such file or directory
 #include <ac_nonexistent.h>
          ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.

Look in config.log for the errors when trying to compile test programs with grib2, hdf4, and netcdf. The output to the terminal when running the configure script will also tell you where things went wrong.
