[netCDF #UZA-829935]: Problem Configuring netcdf-fortran-4.4.1

Hello,

The CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS you specify should be sufficient for the configure 
script to find libnetcdf, but clearly (as you point out), something is going 
on.  In some cases, the message regarding libnetcdf can be misleading; this 
happens when configure can find libnetcdf, but cannot find one of the libraries 
libnetcdf depends on.

In addition to the CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS statements, add the following before 
you invoke configure:

LIBS="-lnetcdf -lhdf5 -lhdf5_hl"

If this does not work, can you please provide the entire config.log generated 
by configure? This may contain additional information I can use to track this 
down. Thanks!

-Ward
