In fact, i hadn't ran "make install". I must had misinterpreted the instructions.
now i ran make install. and it seems successful except for some warnings like the following: libtool: warning: '/home/flexwork/Documents/repos/libmesh/contrib/netcdf/v4/liblib/ libnetcdf.la' has not been installed in '/usr/local/lib' I run the previously mentioned examples and i get: the following using the makefile from https://gist.github.com/jwpeterson/24bda483b26db5a5759d and running make miscellaneous_ex11 for a copy of miscellaneous example 11 with .cc file extension the terminal shows Compiling miscellaneous_ex11.cc and not any errors in the same folder miscellaneous_ex11-opt is created. for completeness i tried using the makefile template from contrib/utils (with the correct paths this time) but for this one i get an error: Linking example-opt... libtool: error: cannot find the library '/usr/local/lib/libnetcdf.la' or unhandled argument '/usr/local/lib/libnetcdf.la' make: *** [Makefile:39: example-opt] Error 1.
