[netCDF #MUR-833037]: Configure problems with the --with-hdf option



> Hi!
> 
> I have two installations of HDF5 on my Linux system. One is in /usr and the 
> other
> is in a custom location. I wanted to build NetCDF as a shared library , linked

> I found that the HDF5 headers from my custom location were correctly used, but
> the library and the programs were linked against the HDF5 lib in /usr, which
> caused the programs to crash.
> Specifying, additionally, LDFLAGS='-Lmy_custom_location' solved the problem

Thanks!

Due in part to problems like these, I am taking away the --with-hdf5 option to 
configure. Users will specify their own locations in flags, and my configure 
script won't mess with them.
