Hello,

It appears that you have configured and built everything correctly; it is odd 
that this test is failing with this error.  It indicates an issue finding the 
netcdf-c library, however if this were the case I would have expected to see 
similar errors much, much earlier in the process.   When you built netcdf-c, 
did you build it with netcdf-4 support?

Does this error also occur if you try to run the test manually, instead of 
through `make check`?
