Re: new netcdf packages: first review



Hi Alastair,

netcdf-fortran depends on netcdf-c, we're currently waiting for a
release there. It should be out soon though [1].
The reason we'll have to wait is that the upcoming version contains a
few patches that actually make netcdf-c work under Debian (e.g., the
documentation builds properly).

Cheers,
Nico
