john,

right now, the plugin compile more or less enforces using
netcdf, unless you either hack Make-arch or explicitely
run the make, e.g. like:

#### begin script

RPM_OPT_FLAGS='-O2 -pipe -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fPIC -fexceptions -m32
-march=i386 -mtune=pentium4 -fasynchronous-unwind-tables'
make dynlibs staticlibs bins \
        ARCH=LINUX COPTO=-o LOPTO=-o CC=gcc CXX=g++ \
        DEF=-D CCFLAGS="${RPM_OPT_FLAGS} -I/usr/include/netcdf-3" \
        CXXFLAGS="${RPM_OPT_FLAGS} -I/usr/include/netcdf-3" \
        TCLLIB="-Ldummy" TCLINC="-Idummy" TCLLDFLAGS="-ltcl8.4 -ldl" \
        NETCDFLIB="-Ldummy" NETCDFINC="-Idummy" \
        NETCDFLDFLAGS="-L/usr/lib/netcdf-3 -lnetcdf" \
        AR=ar NM="nm -p" RANLIB=touch SHLD="gcc -shared" \
&& make ARCH=LINUX PLUGINDIR=${HOME}/compile/vmd/vmd/plugins distrib

#### end script

...and set NETCDFLIB and/or NETCDFINC to empty.

i have this as a small shell script in my cvs checkout,
to avoid conflicts in Make-arch when updating the cvs...

hope that clears up some matters.
