The HDF5 library that netCDF-4 depends on must be built with zlib support.
You can check for this by looking in the directory where the HDF5 library is
installed for the file libhdf5.settings, which is a text file that should 
include
the following line, under the heading labeled "Features":

         I/O filters (external): deflate(zlib)

If it's not there, you will need to rebuild the HDF5 library and tell its 
configure
script where to find the zlib compression library.  It will be named something
like "libz.a" or "libz.so.1.2.8". If it's not already installed, it's available 
from lots of
platform repositories, or you can download the source from

   http://www.zlib.net/

Note that the netCDF-C installation instructions say zlib is required:

   
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/docs/getting_and_building_netcdf.html#building

That documenatation also says that hdf5-1.8.9 or later is required, but if you
have to build with an older version of hdf5, 1.8.6 should be OK with the old
4.1.2 version of netCDF-C, modulo the bugs that have been fixed since that 
version.

Hope this helps ...
