Hi Jorge,

The ifort compiler is trying to link without the argument "-L/usr/local/lib"
needed to specify where the netCDF C library is installed or without having
that directory in your LD_LIBRARY_PATH.  I think the reason may be that you
are running the configure script using "sudo", which doesn't inherit environment
variable settings when running configure with root permissions as a security
measure.  You only need to use sudo when running "make install", not when 
running 
configure or make check.

See here for instructions about building netcdf-fortran 4.2:

> Also, the intel compilers are installed succesfully (ifort and icc)

That may also be a problem from running configure under sudo ...
