I am trying to install CDO v1.9.7 on my Linux VM on Google Cloud but it shows that the latest version available is 1.7. I am trying to regrid some netCDF files using nctoolkit but I can't do this with a CDO version >= 1.9.4

Please see the screenshot below:

I have a personal linux machine which has v1.9.7 but I need the VM as its a GPU machine and I need to process massive datasets. Even though both are Linux I don't understand why its not working.

    Please share your Linux distribution name and version, as you are using apt I suspect is a Debian or an Ubuntu VM instance. Also check if /etc/apt/sources.list have being modified. – Pit Jun 15 '21 at 15:31
  • You can potentially regrid using CDO version 1.7.0. nctoolkit can run with earlier versions of CDO, but I don't test it for compatibility. But if you can install conda/miniconda on google cloud, then I would go with a conda install – Robert Wilson Jun 15 '21 at 17:32

Looks like the version from the Linux's OS is an stable version from Debian 10's repository is:

Version: 1.9.6-1

Please make a backup and give a try to clone the VM and upgrade the OS's version:

$ sudo apt upgrade -y && sudo apt dist-upgrade -y

Because it looks like from the picture you shared that there are a lot of upgrades available.

Please be aware that creating a snapshot as well as cloning the VM will produce an increased cost.
