In this file:
https://github.com/dtcenter/MET/blob/develop/met/docs/Users_Guide/appendixA.rst

does it make sense to refer to the METplus discussion page in the troubleshooting instructions here?

After doing that, please try recompiling MET. If it fails,                                                                                                            
please send [email protected] the following log files.
