Sorry, but that's a GMT problem, not a netCDF problem.  I can only
guess that you either need to invoke "make install" for netCDF to
install it where GMT expects to find it, or define some macro for GMT
before invoking its make to tell it where to find the netCDF library.
The netCDF library is named libnetcdf.a, so another alternative is to
just include an absolute reference to the netCDF library for the
command that links the GMT application.

We don't know much about GMT, just netCDF.  Maybe you could get help
from the GMT mailing list at

  mailto:address@hidden

According to the GMT web page at http://www.soest.hawaii.edu/soest/gmt3.0.html

    ...  If you send mail to gmthelp it will reach ~400 subscribed GMT
    users, one of which is likely to know the solution to your
    problem. To add yourself to this mailinglist (which is maintained
    by the listserver program), you must send mail to address@hidden
    with a 1-line message. E.g., if your name is John Smith then send

       subscribe gmthelp John Smith

    The listserver will automatically obtain your email address.

I hope this helps ...
