Re: PyNIO for NumPy 1.6 and Debian 64 bit

Hi Ivan,
Sorry you are having so much difficulty. No you should not need to have NCL or PyNGL installed. I think you may have encountered a bug that I think only would occur if you do not build the GRIB2 reader into PyNIO. Is that your situation?
I have been able to duplicate your error by building PyNIO without GRIB2. As a quick fix, you could make one change to the Nio.py file:
At about line 101, change:

            if not __formats__['grib2']:
                return None
            else:

to:

            if not __formats__['grib2']:
                return '' # 2 single quotes or 2 double quotes.
            else:

Let me know if you actually are building with GRIB2 or otherwise if this change does not work.
