[MITgcm-support] auto turning off of netCDF

[chris hill]

Hi Ed,

 When I do
 ../../../tools/genmale2 -mods=../code
 in
 verification/global_ocean.90x40x15/build
 with the CVS HEAD I get a message saying netCDF has been turned off
(see below).  However, the build then fails on

 mnc_cw_model_attr.F

 First fail is with _RL not being macro'd. I moved #include in
MNC_OPTIONS.h to fix this.
 Then I get a fail on MNC_TAG_ID in some executable code etc....
 It looks like the auto turn off thing doesn't turn it off like it says.

 If I remove mnc from hardcoded in ../code/packages.conf it works.

 Can you change genmake2 so that if netCDF is not found then the
 ../code/packages.conf enable option is overridden?
