hi Sebastian and Mary,
 I was facing the same two problems. The problem of udunits was solved after
following Mary's advice. I had to unset the UDUNITS_PATH environment variable.
After that, `nargpath udunits' points to the version 2 distribution comes with
ncl 5.2.0.

 Regarding the problem with crypto and ssl libraries, those messages seem to
be just warnings and not harming any calculations for me.

regards,

arindam
