Howdy Akhilesh!

The problem you report can be fixed by replace two files in the distribution 
with the following updates:

http://cvs.savannah.gnu.org/viewcvs/~checkout~/config/config/config.guess
http://cvs.savannah.gnu.org/viewcvs/~checkout~/config/config/config.sub

Get these two files, and overwrite the config.guess and config.sub in the src 
directory. Then try again.

This is a problem with these install utilities on some platforms. It will be 
fixed in the next release of netCDF.

Please let me know if this doesn't solve your problem.

Thanks!
