libhdf4-0-alt - 4.3.0-1 main

HDF is a multi-object file format for storing and transferring
graphical and numerical data mainly used in scientific computing. HDF
supports several different data models, including multidimensional
arrays, raster images, and tables. Each defines a specific aggregate
data type and provides an API for reading, writing, and organizing the
data and metadata. New data models can be added by the HDF developers
or users.
.
This package contains the HDF run-time libraries which do not
collide with the NetCDF library namespace. Fortran functions
are missing in this flavor of the library set.
