I had some problems with a Unix based program and I inquired about it and
they sent me the following message:

In the compile output you want to find the first error message. Because once
something starts to go wrong there are then just a bunch of cascading
errors. The first error is this:

/bin/sh: m4: not found



m4 is a basic unix command usually located in /usr/bin. Since this is
missing, this means your path is wrong or your unix installation is wrong. A
missing m4 would also mess up your netcdf install.


How do I fix this on ubuntu?

Thanks,

jason
