[netCDF #UQB-955316]: netcdf build error

Zilore,

It looks as if your HDF5 library is not completely installed, or you have two 
versions of the HDF5 library installed, HDF-1.8.5 and HDF5-1.8.7.  

Can you uninstall HDF5 and try installing version 1.8.7 again?  Then get a 
new copy of the 4.1.3 netCDF source and install that using the new 
HDF5-1.8.7 installation.

For building netCDF-4.1.3, you need to specify the location where the HDF5
headers and libraries were installed using the CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS 
environment variables, as in

   CPPFLAGS=-I/home/ed/local/include LDFLAGS=-L/home/ed/local/lib ./configure 
--prefix=/home/ed/local
   make check install

as explained here:

   
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/netcdf/docs/netcdf-install/Quick-Instructions.html

If that doesn't work, we'll need to see the output of running the configure
script as well as the "make check install" command, if it got that far, as 
described 
here:

Thanks!
