Description
I am trying to setup MESA on one of the TACC machines (Lonestar6) using their ifort (IFORT) 19.1.1.217 20200306.
However, in my copy of MESA version 26.04.1, I cannot locate either of the makefile_header files referred to below (from the MESA installation website):
Not using the MESA SDK means you’ll need to replace the file $MESA_DIR/utils/makefile_header with a version customized to your system. There’s a template to get you started at $MESA_DIR/utils/makefile_header_non_mesasdk.
Have these files moved somewhere else/ been deleted since the documentation was update in the latest revision?

Research direction
Compare the installation website instructions with the MESA 26.04.1 tree, starting with $MESA_DIR/utils/makefile_header and makefile_header_non_mesasdk. Verify whether these files moved or were removed, then update the installation documentation so the ifort setup instructions point to the current locations or accurately describe the replacement process.
