[netCDF #NGP-204424]: Install problems

Hello, 

When you run ‘sudo make’, the permissions for the directory are changed to 
read/write for root only.  As a result, you do not have permissions to write to 
the directory when you run ‘make check’ without ‘sudo’.  This is shown in the 
test-suite.log file you provided, where an ‘insufficient permissions’ error is 
indicated.  You should start from a fresh directory and only use ‘sudo’ when 
you run ‘sudo make install’.

I hope this helps!
