-===== libRadtran doesn't compile =====
+==== libRadtran doesn't compile ====
-**Solution:** When compiling uvspec, please make sure that you have all required compilers and tools installed, see [[Download]]. For the newer versions of Linux, some of the standard tools are no longer installed by default (as modern users don't want to fiddle around with such ugly things as compilers etc). One particular example is Flex - The Fast Lexical Analyzer. It is usually available for all flavours of Linux, under Mac, and for cygwin, but not necessarily installed by default. You may have to select installation of flex manually. If you have tried compiling uvspec without having flex installed, you may need to remove tools/*_lex.c.

-In principle flex shouldn't be needed to compile uvspec, but in release 1.3 we forgot to include [[http://www.libradtran.org/bin/uvspec_lex.c|uvspec_lex.c]]. You may download it here and copy to the tools directory. Then uvspec should compile even if you don't have flex installed.
-===== Trouble running version 1.4 on Ubuntu =====
-This is a bug which in principle should appear on other machines as well but showed up only on some Ubuntu machines: A memory allocation error is responsible for the aerosol-related tests crashing under Ubuntu. To fix that temporarily (before the next release), change two lines in src/aerosol.c, in particular lines 223 and 1724, from
-   char filetype[3];
-to
-   char filetype[4]="";
-And of course, run 'make' again!
