Re: [ferret_users] ferret for altix ia64

[Ansley Manke <ansley.b.manke@xxxxxxxx>]

Hello,
We no longer have access to an Altix machine ourselves to build Ferret.  
The answer will be for you to either locate and install the libg2c.so 
library, or to build Ferret.  The source code and instructions for 
building Ferret can be found on our Downloads pages,
