gfortran issue

[bmarkus]

I'm trying to build a program which requires gfortran. On TC 4.1 result is

# ./configure
checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/local/bin/install -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking for a thread-safe mkdir -p... /usr/local/bin/mkdir -p
checking for gawk... gawk
checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes
checking for gfortran... gfortran
checking whether the Fortran 77 compiler works... no
configure: error: in `/tmp/voacapl-0.5.8':
configure: error: Fortran 77 compiler cannot create executables

On CentOS 6 it compiles as expected:

[root@zero voacapl-0.5.8]# ./configure
checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking for a thread-safe mkdir -p... /bin/mkdir -p

Any idea?

gcc in tc was compiled to use c and c++, you'll need to compile a fortran extension to compile fortran - I seem to recall somebody did this in tc-3.x..

On CentOS I had to install gcc-gfortran package. Expected gfprtran.tcz is doing the same here on TC.

try cp2fs gfortran

once i had a similar problem because gfortran was searching gcc files at /tmp/tcloop/gfortran/usr/local/lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/

Thanks, it did the trick! Now it compiles and runs fine.

Just to confirm, updated gfortran works fine.

Thanks for fixing.
