They are still supported (and we're committed to supporting that version
2 Fortran API for the foreseeable future). Some possibilities why
you don't see them include:
- They were installed in a separate Fortran library, libnetcdff.a (note
the "ff"), so to link an application requires -lnetcdf -lnetcdff
- The 4.1.3 library was built with that API disabled, which is not the
default, but requires one of the configure options --disable-v2,
--disable-f77, --disable-fortran, or --enable-c-only.
- The configure script was unable to find a Fortran compiler that worked
for Fortran-77 or was unable to link objects created by the C compiler
with the Fortran compiler it found.
Looking at the output from running "nc-config --all" or the output of the
configure script from when the 4.1.3 library was built may clarify what's
going on.
