Erik,

It looks to me like your NCARG_ROOT environment variable isn't
set correctly. It looks like it is set to /opt/intel/ncarg. Is this
indeed where you installed the software? NCARG_ROOT
needs to be set to the *root* location of where you untarred the
binary tar file. For example, if you untarred the file in
the /usr/local directory, then NCARG_ROOT should be set to
/usr/local.
