All,

I am glad to share with you a new build of the OpenGrADS Bundle
v2.2.1.oga.1 *Linux:*

*Linux (32 Bits): *
https://sourceforge.net/projects/opengrads/files/grads2/2.2.1.oga.1/Linux%20%2832%20Bits%29/

*Linux (64 Bits): *
https://sourceforge.net/projects/opengrads/files/grads2/2.2.1.oga.1/Linux%20%2864%20Bits%29/


Instead of labeling the tarballs with the Linux distributions (CentOS,
Ubuntu, etc.), we have instead added the version of GNU C Library (glibc)
which is a better indicator of binary portability. Please select your
tar.gz ball based on your glibc version. To find out your glibc version,
enter at the command line:

                        ldd --version

Select the newest glibc version that is less or equal the version you have
installed on your system. For example, if your system has glibc 2.17 you
can install any version less than or equal to 2.17 (say, 2.17 or 2.12) but
not 2.18.

In any case, it is better to unset any GrADS environment variable that you
may have set (GADDIR, GAUDPT, etc.) to avoid the 2 distributions from
getting entangled. For sure, you do not want to have GAUDPT pointing to
another build. (It is OK to set GASCRP to point to your own script
location, though.)

Please reply to this email if you have any issues with the *Linux* builds.
(No personal emails, please.)

Enjoy!

    Arlindo
