Hello Patti, You need to install hdf5 in /usr/local/. For this, after you have extracted hdf5 package, during the make configuration you need to pass this location.
You can try something like: $ ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/ --with-default-api-version=v16 The api version v16 is also important, since there has been some change with the interface to hdf5. Later you need to 'make', as usual: $ make $ make check $ make install $ make check-install Once above steps are successful, you could then install meep.
