OI suspect either HDF5 or netCDF was built without access to zlib.
You can check the directory where the HDF5 library was installed for a
libhdf5.settings file that should contain a line such as
I/O filters (external): deflate(zlib)
if it was built with zlib. Near the end of the config.log file in the netCDF
build directory, you should see the line
#define USE_ZLIB 1
Otherwise, rebuild HDF5 or netCDF-C 4.3.2 (or both) to make sure
zlib is available to both libraries.
