[netcdfgroup] netCDF-C 4.7.3 now available

Hello all,

The Unidata netCDF team is happy to announce the release of netCDF-C 4.7.3.
The changes since the 4.7.2 release are as follows:

   - [Bug Fix]Fixed an issue where installs from tarballs will not properly
   compile in parallel environments.
   - [Bug Fix] Library was modified so that rewriting the same attribute
   happens without deleting the attribute, to avoid a limit on how many times
   this may be done in HDF5. This fix was thought to be in 4.6.2 but was not.
   See [https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/350].
   - [Enhancement] Add a dispatch version number to netcdf_meta.h and
   libnetcdf.settings, in case we decide to change dispatch table in future.
   See [https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/1469].
   - [Bug Fix] Now testing that endianness can only be set on atomic ints
   and floats. See [https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/1479].
   - [Bug Fix] Fix for subtle error involving var and unlimited dim of the
   same name, but unrelated, in netCDF-4. See [
   https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/1496].
   - [Enhancement] Update for attribute documentation. See [
   https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/1512].
   - [Bug Fix][Enhancement] Corrected assignment of anonymous (a.k.a.
   phony) dimensions in an HDF5 file. Now when a dataset uses multiple
   dimensions of the same size, netcdf assumes they are different dimensions.
   See GitHub #1484 <https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/1484> for
   more information.
