+CDO (Climate Data Operators)
+
+CDO is a collection of command line Operators to manipulate and analyse
+Climate and NWP model Data.
+
+Supported data formats are GRIB 1/2, netCDF 3/4, SERVICE, EXTRA and
+IEG. There are more than 600 operators available.
+
+REQUIRES: proj udunits netcdf eccodes
+
+By default, the script does not build nor run the tests. You can use the
+option TESTBUILD=YES to build and run the tests before the make install
+part. Note that the hdf5 slackbuild builds the library in a
+non-thread-safe manner so one of the test will fail with a note in the
+test log about requiring the use of the -L flag to compensate, but the
+tests themself to not use that flag so fails.
