Hi Ivan:  I've done some work lately trying to get this indexed correctly, 
but to no avail.  The only way I can get this to work is to bypass the 
CPAN shell and download the PDL::NetCDF.tar.gz directly.  Then untar, perl 
Makefile.PL; make; make test; make install.

You also need to set environment variables to tell it where to find the 
netcdf include files and library.

PDL::NetCDF is working just fine and continues to be maintained.

Regards,

   Doug
