Hi Alastair, the basis netCDF package is shaping up; a number of patches have been submitted upstream and basically we're only waiting for a release now.
Two things that are not (yet) working: * installation of shared and static libraries (so far shared-only), * installation of serial and parallel versions. In fact, the latter is quite interesting to me since I need parallel netCDF for one of my application codes. I'm not sure how what the best debian/rules would be to ship them both; maybe you guys can give some advice here.
