[netCDF #VOZ-441159]: Error installing netcdf

Hello Robert,

This is a known issue.  Currently, we are not officially supporting HDF5 
1.10.0, but support will be available in the upcoming 4.4.1 release.  The main 
issue is that HDF5 1.10.0, combined with netcdf-c 4.4.0 or earlier, creates 
binary files that are not readable on systems that are using hdf5 1.8.16 or 
earlier.   There is a release candidate for 4.4.1, available from our GitHub 
page, at https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/releases.  There are still test 
failures, but these can be ignored for the time being.

I hope this helps!
