Hi Wagner,

One way to solve this would be to turn off building the netCDF C++ library, 
which nothing
else in the package depends on.  If you don't need the C++ API, just start over 
from the
configure step, setting the environment variable 

  CXX=''

before running the configure script.

If you actually need the C++ library for some reason, it looks like you'll have 
to get your
C++ development environment working first.  The error message you encountered 
is not
from netCDF.  It indicates a problem with how the C++ compiler and libraries 
you are
using were installed.

Unfortunately I can't help with getting intel c++ compilers working on Ubuntu 
or using
g++ instead.
