Public bug reported:

So far, netCDF depends on libhdf5-serial-dev, restricting the I/O to serial. 
There are a number of parallel HDF5 installation options in Ubuntu already, 
e.g., libhdf5-mpi-dev or libhdf5-openmpi-dev. NetCDF could as well build 
against those, allowing for parallel I/O. One change in the configure script is 
that NetCDF would need to be configured with the respective MPI compiler.
I'm not sure what the cleanest options here would be. Possible a package 
libnetcdf-openmpi-dev?
