[netCDF #FIV-736386]: Help with Building netcdf Fortan shared libraries

Hello,

Specifically, you will need to download a release; my guess is that you 
downloaded the developer snapshot.  I will clarify this in the instructions.  
In the meantime, you can find the latest release here:

* https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-fortran/releases/tag/v4.5.3

These archive files should contain the 'configure' file.

Thanks, have a great day,

-Ward
