Dear Maintainer,

Your package fails to detect HDF 4.4.0:

checking for DFSDgetdata in -ldf... no
configure: WARNING: can't find libdf (HDF4): won't be able to compile h5fromh4 or h4fromh5

The full buildlog is attached.

Note that libdf was renamed to libhdf in 4.4.0.

Kind Regards,

Bas

This is fixed in git.

Kind Regards,

Bas
