  • Date: Wed, 01 Jun 2016 10:23:45 -0600
Hello Salik,

From the config.log file you provided, I see the following:

    ./conftest: error while loading shared libraries: libnetcdf.so.11: cannot 
open shared object file: No such file or directory

This suggests that either netcdf-c is not installed, or it is installed in a 
non-standard location.  If it has not been installed, you will need to install 
netCDF-C, available from https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/releases.  If it 
is in a non-standard location, you will need to specify this by setting the 
LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable, e.g. LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib, or whatever the 
appropriate location is.

I hope this helps,

-Ward
