Linux install instructions incorrect
First of all great library! Thanks for supporting it.
Recently I had to deploy my application on a Linux platform. I followed the instructions to install the libnetcdf-dev package with:
sudo apt-get install libnetcdf-dev
and would get an error saying 64 bit process cannot load library.
I found out the latest version of libnetcdf-dev, does not install the library at the expected location:
/usr/lib/libnetcdf.so.7
It is installed here (for amd64 architecture):
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libnetcdf.so.11.4.0
I made a symbolic link between the two locations:
ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libnetcdf.so.11.4.0 /usr/lib/libnetcdf.so.7
and voila, the application was able to successfully run and read netCDF files on Linux.
