[netCDF #SPF-148694]: Question about pointing libraries of netcdf

Only the first line has anything tto do with netCDF.  I have no idea what the
> CMD   =       xcel
is for.

The line 
> LIBS = -lnetcdff -lnetcdf
is assuming that you have installed netCDF libraries in /usr/local/lib, so it
assumes the files libnetcdff.a and libnetcdf.a exist there, or the shared object
equivalents, such as libnetcdf.so and libnetcdff.o.

If those libraries aren't installed in that directory, the Makefile won't work. 
 If you know 
where they are installed, you could instead provide the absolute path names to 
the
library files.
