math/R-ncdf has been removed upstream and replaced with RNetCDF.

I have created wip/R-RNetCDF with the modern replacement from upstream.
Tested ok using the standard g95 compiler on NetBSD 7.99.42 amd64.
Should become math/R-NetCDF later on.

Subject: PR/51607 CVS commit: pkgsrc/math

Module Name: pkgsrc
Committed By: maya
Date: Mon Sep 17 13:24:18 UTC 2018
Modified Files:
pkgsrc/math: Makefile
Added Files:
pkgsrc/math/R-RNetCDF: DESCR Makefile distinfo
pkgsrc/math/R-RNetCDF/patches: patch-configure
Log Message:
Add package R-RNetCDF version 1.9-1
An R interface to the NetCDF file format designed by Unidata for
efficient storage of array-oriented scientific data and descriptions.
The R interface is closely based on the C API of the NetCDF library,
and it includes calendar conversions from the Unidata UDUNITS library.
The current implementation supports all operations on NetCDF datasets
in classic and 64-bit offset file formats, and NetCDF4-classic format
is supported for reading and modification of existing files.
From Kai-Uwe Eckhardt, updated as the previous distfile wasn't available.

State-Changed-Why:
I've added the package to pkgsrc proper (after a necessary update, as the old distfiles weren't kept in the same place).
I'm not familiar with the R landscape. Does this mean that we should remove R-ncdf and R-NetCDF?

Also, the package itself is called RNetCDF in R, is renaming it to a
name different from what upstream uses desirable?

Yes, ncdf has been removed upstream and maya already created R-RNetCDF
for its successor. There is also ncdf4, with support for more modern
NetCDF formats. I no longer use pkgsrc, but in my opinion this PR can be
closed after removing R-ncdf.

Please close the PR. There are more important things than a package for
a R module that has been removed upstream. The only effect of this PR is
a weekly reminder in my mailbox for some years now ;-)
