Hi David,

The compilation of the netcdf is correct compared to the link you shared:

"-L/home/jesse/Programs/hdf5/lib
/home/jesse/Programs/hdf5/lib/libhdf5_hl.so
/home/jesse/Programs/hdf5/lib/libhdf5.so"

I am not use how to get the ExodusII compilation, since it uses cmake, of
which I am fairly ignorant.  However, it would surprise me, since my
compilation succeeds unlike in that post - it's just when I am accessing
the shared ExodusII library.  In addition, with the cmake, there haven't
been errors like this previously.

Jesse
