All,
    I finally got everything including ncl compiled.  The error below
    was being caused by the existence of the triangle makefile in the
    src/ncl directory.  Fedora turns out not to provide statically
    compiled libraries for things like -X11, so a fully static build was
    impossible.  The pre-existence of dependency libraries and headers
    that were other versions or had been built with other compilers and
    compiler options was the biggest issue.  By creating a special
    compilation environment and carefully controlling the -L -l and -I
    to be the right version compiled with the icc and ifort compilers, I
    was able to get it to work.  A last hiccup was one Makefile that had
    a hardcoded g\+\+ compiler in it that had to be changed to icc.  
    
    I never did get it to compile automatically but had to manually
    tailor the ncl build after it failed.
    
    Next question:  Can I now move everything that was installed to the
    new $NCARG directory anywhere, or are there relative paths compiled
    in that will break if moved form where it was first installed.  ( I
    understand that I would have to change the env NCARG_ROOT to it's
    location.)
    
    Unfortunately, after all this effort, it appears that a fortran
    module that I have been using, for which I do not have source code,
    will not load giving the error: undefined symbol: NclGetArgValue. 
    Is there any way to fix this kind of problem without the module
    source?
     
    Thanks, TJ Olney

      I'm trying to compile ncl 6.0 from source with ifort and icc with
      -O3 xssse3 .  I've read what I could find in prior emails here and
      on ncl-talk.
      However, the next make all install ended here in $NCARG/ni/src/ncl
      make[3]: *** No rule to make target
      `../../.././ni/src/lib/hlu/libhlu.a', needed by `ncl'.  Stop.
      
      Thoughts?  What must I backtrack to for that one.
