If you have built netcdf by following the instructions in
/home/hxd/netcdf/src/INSTALL, then the netCDF library is either
installed in /home/hxd/netcdf/lib/libnetcdf.a (the default) or in
the directory you specified as the destination using the "--prefix"
argument to the "configure" script.  If you installed the netcdf
library using an rpm package, for example from

  http://starship.python.net/crew/hinsen/netcdf-3.4-4.i386.rpm

rather than building it from source, it's wherever that process
installed it.

Sorry, but we aren't the developers of NumPy, aren't very familiar
with Python, and don't have it installed here, so we aren't able to
debug this problem any further from the information given.  I suggest
you contact the author of NumPy if the problem is related to getting
that Python module to work.
