Here are some instructions for compiling NetCDF with HDF5 support on CentOS 5&6, RedHat 5&6, and Fedora 12-16. http://tinyurl.com/cl2cce7 -----Original Message----- From: thredds-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:thredds-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Matthias Müller Sent: Thursday, December 08, 2011 9:58 AM To: thredds@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: [thredds] Compression by Gathering working with Thredds? Thank you very much for the feedback - this has saved me quite some work. Have you got soem suggestions which linux distributions are featuring netCDF4 out of the box? Last time I checked, Suse and Debian were shipped with netCDF3 support only. Are there any 3rd party repositories that I can include to get netcdf4-support?
