See these intructions, particularly the first paragraph:

It appears that you haven't installed the netCDF C library before building
the netCDF Fortran library.  When you have installed the netCDF C library,
preferably the latest released version 4.3.0, then you can set CPPFLAGS
and LDFLAGS to specify its location before building the Fortran library
(version 4.2 is the latest release, which works OK with the C version 4.3.0).
