Description of problem: When rebuilding dx, configure fails to detect a working netcdf package. However, both netcdf and netcdf-devel are installed: configure: checking for NETCDF support ...... checking netcdf/netcdf.h usability... no checking netcdf/netcdf.h presence... no checking for netcdf/netcdf.h... no checking for nc_copy_att in -lnetcdf... yes checking if NETCDF package is complete... no -- some components failed test Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): dx-4.4.4-14.fc13.src.rpm How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Execute 'rpmbuild --rebuild dx-4.4.4-14.fc13.src.rpm'. Actual results: rpmbuild returns 'checking if NETCDF package is complete... no -- some components failed test. Expected results: rpmbuild returns 'checking if NETCDF package is complete... yes Additional info: - header location is back to normal making the path modification in dx-rpm.patch obsolete. - hdf does not seem to be linked in either
Confirmed, thanks for the report.

dx-4.4.4-15.fc13 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 13. http://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/dx-4.4.4-15.fc13
The spec file says: BuildRequires: hdf-static, hdf-devel but 'ldd' tells something different, e.g.: ldd dxexec | grep hdf libhdf5_hl.so.6 => /usr/lib64/libhdf5_hl.so.6 (0x00000031caa00000) libhdf5.so.6 => /usr/lib64/libhdf5.so.6 (0x00000031cce00000) thus, the binary depends on package hdf5 and hdf5-devel is presumably required for building dx. Btw, package hdf5-devel is pulled in by netcdf-devel.
dx-4.4.4-15.fc13 has been pushed to the Fedora 13 testing repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. If you want to test the update, you can install it with su -c 'yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update dx'.

Btw, package hdf5-devel is pulled in by netcdf-devel. It may be pulled in, but it's not used. dx uses hdf, not hdf5. hdf5 is incompatible with hdf as far as I can tell: http://www.hdfgroup.org/h5h4-diff.html
dx-4.4.4-15.fc13 has been pushed to the Fedora 13 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
