Description: modified (diff)

Test folder system run on IBM has been successful.

There is still work to be done to test and improve the automatic build and configure method for ROPP and its dependencies on the IBM.

1) buildpack does not automatically 'pick up' a new package file to build in the first step.

2) The BUFR library needs an update to enable building on the IBM (I have made a few initial tweaks, but not correctly working yet). Note we have a user (Rabindra Jena, NCMRWF) who requires BUFR support on the IBM.

3) Updated netcdf configure scripts need to be provided to enable local netCDF builds. To date, the test folder tests have been conducted by linking against the pre-built netCDF library under /opt/netcdf/3.6.2/ Note we have a user (Rabindra Jena, NCMRWF) who requires netCDF support on the IBM.
