Hi Rakesh,

Sorry it's taken so long to respond to your question.

> error
> checking for fortran flaf to compile f90 file ......unknown
> error:Fortran could not compile f90 files

This indicates that your Fortran 90 compiler is not working.  You can
see why near the end of the config.log output.  You can either fix the
problem revealed there or configure with --disable-f90 if you don't
need the library to be built with the Fortran 90 interface.

Also, it would be good to use a more recent version of netCDF, if
practical, for example netCDF 4.1.1 from

  ftp://ftp.unidata.ucar.edu/pub/netcdf/netcdf.tar.gz

This will compile the netCDF-3 data model by default if HDF5 is not
installed, or you can direct it to only compile the netCDF-3 library
by specifying --disable-netcdf-4 to the configure script.
