RE: [ncl-install] ncl 6.0 on SUSE x64 "floating exception"

Dear Mary,

As you might remember from 5.2.1, we have exactly the same problem as Jakob on our Cray XT4 of MeteoSwiss. (This seems to be a weather service problem... :-) ). I've pulled the binary and I get...

> ./ncl.debian.432 -V
./ncl.debian.432: /lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.7' not found (required by ./ncl.debian.432)

The RedHat also gives a "floating exception". As for Jakob, we are running on a remote system and pulling up the OS or gcc version is not such a simple task.

Cheers,
Oli
