Bug#321336: completely revamped netcdf package



Hey everyone,

I just wanted to point you two to the completely revamped netcdf package I 
have created. I am putting this together in hopes that the current debian 
package can eventually be replaced.

It is not lintian clean, but it builds all the files, including the manually 
generated shared libs for libnetcdf. I have also updated it to use debhelper 
5. It also now only builds the binaries once. I have compiled it with 
gfortran-4.0. It doesn't use g77 at all. Consequently, the f77 and the f90 
bindings are both generated. It also aims for policy 3.7.2 compliance. It is 
also based on the latest release of netcdf (3.6.1).

Know problems:
* Binaries build statically because the netcdf build system doesn't support 
building shared libs.
* Not lintian clean
* doesn't execute ldconfig in postinst

Be warned that these pacakges are not cryptographically signed.

I am releasing these packages now as it looks like someone else (namely Daniel 
Baumann) has an ITA on this package and I just wanted to get these out so 
that he could benefit from my packaging effort to update to the latest 
debhelper and policy.

The package files are all located at:
deb http://www.penguintechs.org/debian/netcdf/ ./
deb-src http://www.penguintechs.org/debian/netcdf/ ./

Have a good night everyone.
