The BIST in file tes_ncarray fails when NetCDF 4.9.3 is installed in the my Debian GNU/Linux system:

octave:1> pkg load ncarray
octave:2> test_ncarray
error: NetCDF: Not a valid data type or _FillValue type mismatch
error: called from
    ncwrite at line 106 column 3
    ncarray_example_file at line 45 column 3
    test_ncarray at line 35 column 5

Using single() for setting the attribute _FillValue seemed to work with NetCDF 4.9.2, but ceased to work with version 4.9.3 (released in February 2025). Using double() fixes the problem (cf patch attached to this bug report).
