(closes: #219592, > #278739) Hi Warren, Regarding the use of gfortran -- are you aware that g77 and gfortran produce object code with somewhat incompatible ABIs? See my previous emails on this topic here: http://lists.debian.org/debian-science/2005/09/msg00071.html http://lists.debian.org/debian-science/2006/06/msg00005.html Unfortunately it seems that no one is yet endeavoring to make sure there is a reasonable transition plan for libraries from g77 to gfortran. (Possibly I will try to do something about this post-etch, if I have time and once gfortran supports all the g77 intrinsics.) For that reason I recommend that all FORTRAN libraries, when possible, be compiled with g77 for the moment. If netcdf does not have any functions returning REAL (single-precision) or COMPLEX, maybe building netcdf with gfortran is OK though. best regards, -- Kevin B.
