Hi Tom,

The opendap package built and I installed the three resulting binary
RPMs.  Skimming [:-)] over the spec file and the list of installed
files, it appears there are no shared libraries.  So is it OK to
remove the %post/%postun bits?  Or did I miss something?

Also, I tried to run the "dncview" program on a few small netCDF files
and it seg-faulted.  It seg-faulted on "dncview -h".  And the older
version (built from opendap-3.4.4-1 SRPM) also seg-faulted so its
rather unlikely that any of your newer patches caused it.  I'll look
into it and try to figure out whats happening.

Ed
