Hi all!

I have been trying to install qgis 1.6.0 from source since two days now. I
get the following error everytime:
/usr/bin/ld: warning: libnetcdf.so.4, needed by /usr/local/lib/libgdal.so,

I use Ubuntu 10.10 64-bit and also have GRASS GIS installed. I have also
tried after installing libnetcdf-dev and libnetcdf6 packages but no luck.
When I try to invoke any gdal module in GRASS I get a similar error:

gdal_translate: error while loading shared libraries: libnetcdf.so.4: cannot
open shared object file: No such file or directory

Please help me sort out this issue.

Thanks and regards,

Chethan S.
