Hi Keyvan.

You should only install one version of the library, preferably the most
recent, which for Ubuntu would be netcdf-4.2.1.  (We have a later version
4.2.1.1 available in a source release.)

To read netCDF data from Fortran, you also need to get and install the 
netcdf-fortran software, which has been separate from the netCDF-C 
library since the 4.1.3 release.  After you have installed the netCDF C
library, the netCDF-fortran library can be built and installed following
these instructions:

It's also possible that there is an Ubuntu package with netcdf-fortran
already built, which would make this step a little bit easier.
