Compiling WRF Chem with KPP

[kshores]

I'm only interested in getting the KPP files to compile for a specific WRF mechanism. I don't have a preference for the version of WRF, but I'm using 4.5. I'm compiling on Derecho, but ultimately, I want to set up a Dockerfile to compile the KPP files for different mechanisms since that's all I care about. I don't actually care if WRF compiles successfully. I need a set of files configured to build the KPP version we've modified.

However, KPP fails to compile, and I'm unclear whether it's a configuration I haven't set or a module version. This problem seems similar to this thread, but I don't understand what was fixed there.

On derecho, I've installed the dependencies for WRF using conda environment I've called music_box in /glade/work/kshores/conda-envs/music_box

# packages in environment at /glade/work/kshores/conda-envs/music_box:
#
# Name Version Build Channel
bison 3.8.2 h59595ed_0 conda-forge
flex 2.6.4 h58526e2_1004 conda-forge

I load gcc with module load gcc.

(music_box) [kshores@derecho2] ~/WRFV4.5 $ module load gcc
(music_box) [kshores@derecho2] ~/WRFV4.5 $ gcc --version
gcc (Spack GCC) 12.4.0

Then I set these exports


export WRF_CHEM=1
export WRF_KPP=1
export NETCDF_classic=1
export FLEX=/glade/work/kshores/conda-envs/music_box/bin/flex
export FLEX_LIB_DIR=/glade/work/kshores/conda-envs/music_box/lib/
export WRFCHEM_FOLDER=$HOME/WRFV4.5
export KPP_HOME=$WRFCHEM_FOLDER/chem/KPP/kpp/kpp-2.1
export WRF_SRC_ROOT_DIR=$WRFCHEM_FOLDER
export YACC=/glade/work/kshores/conda-envs/music_box/bin/yacc

After that, I configure with option 32 for gcc, and zero for the next default value. The build of KPP then immediately fails.

What am I missing here?
