[netCDF #FXS-621687]: FW: Problem make check NetCDF Fortran "undefined reference to"

Hi Ana,

> I am trying to install NetCDF in my Dell PowerEdge T605 workstation with

> (mydir) - fortran4.2/fortran/./fort-varsio.c:161: undefined reference to

> ./fortran/.libs/libnetcdff.a(fort-varsio.o): in fuction 'nf-put-vars'

It appears that you haven't installed the netCDF C library by running
"make install" (or "sudo make install") after running "make check.  You
should install the netCDF C library before trying to build and install
the netCDF Fortran library, as described here:

  http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/netcdf/docs/netcdf-fortran-install.html

Make sure you specify a directory under which to install the bin/, lib/, 
and include/ directories for the netCDF C library using the --prefix=
option of the configure script, unless you want to accept the default
location of --prefix=/usr/local/, and then set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to include
the lib/ directory of that location before trying to build the netCDF
Fortran library.

You also should check that you don't have a previously installed netCDF
C library in /usr/lib or some other location searched by default for
shared libraries.  If there is a previously built netCDF C library that
was built for a different Fortran compiler, you would get the kind of 
error messages you are seeing.
