Version: latest Environment: ubuntu 18.04 bionic Descripton:

I want to build netcdf-cxx4 libraries without anything being installed in a system location, i.e., without sudo.

successfully built netcdf-c with the following commands:

cd ~/netcdf-c ; mkdir build ; cd build cmake -DENABLE_DAP=OFF -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=install .. make && make ./install

attempted to build netcdf-cxx-4 with the prefix path set to point to the location of nc-config and netCDFConfig.cmake:

cd netcdf-cxx4 ; mkdir build ; cd build cmake -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=~/netcdf-c/build ..

The output of the cmake invocation can be found here:

cmake_output.txt

Line 14 indicates that "netcdf" was found

make

The output of the make invocation can be found here:

make_output.txt

Line 49 indicates that "netcdf" was not found
