Hi,

libc.2 is not a netCDF library, but a shared C runtime library that
should be installed and found by default on your HP system.  Try
running the command:

  % ldd `which ncgen`

to see where the shared libraries are being found for ncgen on your
system.  For example, when I build ncgen as a 64-bit executable on an
HP system, I get:

  % ldd ncgen
        libc.2 =>       /usr/lib/pa20_64/libc.2
        libdl.1 =>      /usr/lib/pa20_64/libdl.1
        /opt/graphics/OpenGL/lib/pa20_64/libogltls.sl =>        
/opt/graphics/OpenGL/lib/pa20_64/libogltls.sl

which shows that libc.2 is found in /usr/lib/pa20_64/.  ldd only works
on 64-bit executables, so if ncgen is built as a 32-bit executable,
I don't know how to find where it expects shared libraries to be.
