Well I have never tried fortran at all.
I do know redhat and debian don't agree on locations for 64bit
libraries, so it is quite possible the result of using alien on the rpm
will still not work. Perhaps you should ask alien to generate a tgz
instead and extract and manually install the files in /usr/local as
appropriate.
It's rather a shame that intel thinks releasing rpm's is a good
distribution method for their software. At least vmware uses a tar file
that anyone can use.
