[netCDF #KHZ-516126]: Installation of two versions of netcdf with different compilers

Hi Carlos,

I agree with your conclusion; the issue seems to stem from 'make install', 
which is unusual.  Can you run 'make check' and 'make install' separately to 
confirm this?  

The message given suggests a filesystem error when processing the shell script 
(Makefile).  There are a couple reasons this might happen; perhaps, for some 
reason, you don't have access to the 'Documents2' directory? Or perhaps the 
directory 'Documents2/netcdf-4.4.1' already exists? The latter shouldn't 
matter, but I'm not certain what else would cause this error.  Can you confirm 
that you have write access to the directory? Perhaps try to create the 
'include' directory manually? What happens if you try specifying a different 
directory altogether?
