[netcdfgroup] Problem in deleting variables with ncks

Hi,

For some reason, I am not able to delete a variable with ncks (with -x -v option). Wondering why.....

I am typing

ncks -O -x -v time_bounds Season_ET.nc Season_ET.nc

My netcdf (Season_ET.nc) looks like -

netcdf Season_ET {
dimensions:
        time = UNLIMITED ; // (112 currently)
        lat = 76 ;
        lon = 120 ;
        hist_interval = 2 ;
variables:
        float ET(time, lat, lon) ;
                ET:_FillValue = 1.e+36f ;
                ET:cell_methods = "time: mean" ;
                ET:long_name = "ET" ;
                ET:missing_value = 1.e+36f ;
                ET:units = "mm/s" ;
        float lat(lat) ;
                lat:long_name = "coordinate latitude" ;
                lat:units = "degrees_north" ;
        float lon(lon) ;
                lon:long_name = "coordinate longitude" ;
                lon:units = "degrees_east" ;
        float time(time) ;
                time:long_name = "time" ;
                time:units = "days since 1980-10-01 00:00:00" ;
                time:calendar = "noleap" ;
                time:bounds = "time_bounds" ;
        double time_bounds(time, hist_interval) ;
                time_bounds:long_name = "history time interval endpoints" ;
// global attributes:
                :title = "CLM History file information" ;
:comment = "NOTE: None of the variables are weighted by land fraction!" ;
                :Conventions = "CF-1.0" ;
                :source = "Community Land Model CLM4.0" ;
                :hostname = "saudi" ;
                :username = "mizukami" ;
                :version = "cesm1_0_3" ;
:revision_id = "$Id: histFileMod.F90 28831 2011-06-07 06:14:20Z erik $" ;
                :case_title = "UNSET" ;
                :case_id = "MAURER12K_PN" ;
                :Surface_dataset = "surfdata_PN12K.nc" ;
:Initial_conditions_dataset = "MAURER12K_PN_TEST.clm2.r.spin.nc" ; :PFT_physiological_constants_dataset = "pft-physiology.c110425.nc" ;
                :RTM_input_dataset = "rdirc_0.5x0.5_simyr2000_c101124.nc" ;
                :nco_openmp_thread_number = 1 ;
                :NCO = "20131105" ;
}
