Did you try the commands?

You have a local binary distribution on your machine, and the "You may
be able to fix things..." message encompasses that--'fink scanpackages'
is _only_ relevant to locally built packages.  'apt-get update' uses
data from both the local package list, as generated by 'fink
scanpackages', and (a) remote binary distribution(s), if present.

The issue here is that netcdf-bin carries a versioned dependency on
netcdf-c7-shlibs _by design_ to ensure that there isn't a mismatch
between the executables and the libraries.  The penalty for this choice
is that upgrades take just a bit more effort.
