Description Chris Edsall 2011-02-17 05:29:42 UTC

Created attachment 479265 [details]
patch adding flag to .spec file for 64bit arch's. Only tested on x86_64

Description of problem:

The library is missing the flag  -D__64BIT__ which should be included when compiling on 64bit architectures

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

all to current g2clib-1.2.1-1.el6

How reproducible:

Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Be running a 64 bit platform
2. Use an application linked against g2clib  
3. Open a GRIB file
  
Actual results:

Additional info:

After adding the flag, rebuilding g2clib and rebuilding NCL the problem  was resolved.

Comment 1 Orion Poplawski 2011-02-17 17:07:04 UTC

Yowza, I guess nobody has been using these packages on  64-bit.  I am getting the following warning on x86_64 with __64BIT__ set that I would like to resolve as well:

in case they might cause other problems.

Comment 14 Chris Edsall 2011-03-17 02:19:55 UTC

Hi Orion,

Thanks for the prompt response. I don't have a RHLE6 or recent Fedora box handy to test with (I'll spin up a VM later). However I have tested with 

epel-testing Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux 5 - Testing - x86_64

[edsall@cli-ops ncl]$ rpm -q redhat-release-5Server ncl ncl-common
redhat-release-5Server-5.5.0.2
ncl-5.1.1-4.el5
ncl-common-5.1.1-4.el5

And it works perfectly:
