Hello,

Please note that the "ncdf" package is designed for netcdf library version
3, and the newer "ncdf4" package is designed for netcdf library version 4.
If you want to install "ncdf" with version 4 of the netcdf library, you
can find instructions at the ncdf/ncdf4 package homepage:

http://cirrus.ucsd.edu/~pierce/ncdf/

or just follow the package URL link from CRAN.

Regards,

--Dave
