<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>See below for details as requested. I have not not
tried the pre-compiled versions of supplibs. Actually, I have been working in a
windows test environment with grads 1.8 and gradsdods/lats4d. When I wanted to
deploy, I downloaded grads-bin-1.8sl11-linux.tar.gz which gave me segmentation
faults when trying to do sdfopen. A little homework in the userlist archives
indicated that 1.9 is more stable and I decided to build from source thinking
this would be the way to go to avoid problems.</FONT></DIV>

the supplibs have been slightly patched as to produce portable GrADS binaries,
something we have done for years, so that it finds "udunits.dat" under GADDIR.
I have built the supplibs on a large number of platforms, and UDUNITS is never
a package that gave me grief. So, I am a bit surprised. My guess is that you
have an older version of "make". I have access to a SuSe box, not sure which
version it is. Let's first see what you've got.<BR><BR>There are 2 kinds of
users who builds the supplibs from sources: 1) the pre-compiled supplibs don't
work for them (I'd like to know when this is the case), and 2) for security
reasons or just personal preference, one likes always to build everything from
sources, which is why I tried to document the build process. Do you include
yourself under 1) or 2)? I guess my question is, have you tried using the
pre-compiled i686 supplibs "as is"? Was there a problem? Is this an
option for you? If so, it could save us both time figuring out some
particularities of SuSe.<BR><BR> Arlindo<BR><BR></DIV></DIV>--
