[netCDF #JAZ-406499]: Configure error cannot compute size of (off_t)

Hello,

From the config.log file you provided, I see the following error:

````
configure:21441: ./conftest
./conftest: error while loading shared libraries: libnetcdf.so.11: cannot open 
shared object file: No such file or directory
configure:21441: $? = 127
````

This suggests to me that the runtime loader cannot find `libnetcdf.so.11` at 
runtime, when attempting to run the temporary `conftest` program it created 
(successfully) to compute the size of the `off_t` data type.

Since your netCDF library is located in a non-standard location, the runtime 
loader must be told where to find it.  This is controlled using the 
`LD_LIBRARY_PATH` environmental variable.  In this case, you would set

     LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${NCDIR}/lib

This will tell the runtime loader to look in 
/home/piyush/model/libs/ncdf_install/lib in addition to standard locations 
(/usr/lib, for example).

I hope this helps, have a great day,

-Ward
