Re: install netcdf package

[Alexander Barth]

Dear Clinton,

It seems that you have installed netcdf manually by setting the option --prefix to /usr/local/netcdf, can you confirm?

Otherwise (i.e. without the prefix option) libnetcdf.so.7 would go to /usr/local/lib (and not /usr/local/netcdf/lib as in your case), as far as I know.

The linker knows about the libraries in /usr/local/lib, but not about /usr/local/netcdf/lib therefore the library is not found.

Does it work when you set in a shell these variables before starting octave?

export PATH=/usr/local/netcdf/bin:$PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/netcdf/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

Regards,

Alex

​It appears to me that you have stuff installed in ​some non-standard places.

Did you compile/installed Octave from source yourself?

​I do not know Ubuntu well, but expect it to provide those package pre-compiled.​
