[netCDF #BZW-839962]: Always "configure: error: Can't find or link to the hdf5 library. Use --disable-netcdf-4, or see config.log for errors.". Almost crazy...Help!

Hello Ming,

Most of what you have looks correct; what happens if you adjust your 
LD_LIBRARY_PATH as follows?

 export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/ming/local/lib

/home/ming/local/lib should be correct, since the libraries are installed in 
that directory.  Currently you have it set to /home/ming/local.

If this does not work, can you please provide the config.log file generated 
when you run configure? That should provide additional information about the 
specific failure.

Thanks!
