[netCDF #ADU-366092]: how to solve "configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables See `config.log' for more details" during netcdf-c library installation

Hello,

Thank you for providing the log.  It appears you have an error when defining 
your `LDFLAGS` variable.  From the log, I observe the following:

LDFLAGS='-L/home/maslab-4/ANKAN/ANKANRegCM4/libraries/zlib-1.2.11/lib - 
L/home/maslab-4/ANKAN/ANKANRegCM4/libraries/hdf5-1.8.16/lib'

There is a space between the second `-` and `L`, e.g. `- 
L/home/maslab-4/(...)`.  If you replace this with `-L`, this error should go 
away.

Thank you, have a good day,

-Ward
