Installing Metview on Debian Wheezy

These instructions are based on https://software.ecmwf.int/wiki/display/METV/Installation+Guide and some trial and error (the requirements are rather vaguely described in the Installation Guide).

Before you issue the commands below, be sure to activate the use of non-free software, since libmotif-dev is non-free (there is a free replacement for libmotif-dev, but I have not tested whether Metview works with it or not).

apt-get update
apt-get install libnetcdfc++4 libexpat1-dev libxml-parser-perl ghostscript ksh \
gsfonts-x11 libboost-dev libproj-dev cableswig swig libcairo2-dev libgd2-xpm \

 The default directory for gribtables, bufrtables, crextables,
land_sea_mask, gribtemplates and libemosR64.a will be /usr/local/lib,
 but you may put them anywhere you wish assuming
you have permission to do so.

 You can specify the directory path for GRIB, BUFR, CREX tables
local definition templates, land-sea mask, and libemosR64.a library
or just press RETURN if you want default directory.

Tables, templates, land-sea mask and libemosR64.a directory [/usr/local/lib]:
