[Mesa-users] diff cannot configure

[Francis Timmes]

hi jing,

you may not have followed all of the installation instructions at 
http://www.astro.wisc.edu/~townsend/static.php?ref=mesasdk

specifically, did you set the environment variable MESASDK_ROOT
and then source $MESASDK_ROOT/bin/mesasdk_init.csh ?

if you do a 

% gfortran --version

the first line should be GNU Fortran (GCC) 7.2.0
indicating the the mesasdk supplied complier is being used.

Any suggestions about why might went wrong please? Many thanks. Note that I am trying to install mesa on an institute owned iMac, and I do not have administrator permission.
