Not finding libnetcdf.* to remove is not a problem - it's likely it was never built in the first place. If you completely remove the contents of $NAWIPS/extlibs/netCDF/ and then uncompress the previously attached tarball, then follow the build instructions (run "make clean" and "make all" in $NAWIPS/extlibs/netCDF/ - do not run "make all" from $NAWIPS) - do you still see the libtool problem?
