Re: Packaging Octave for Windows and OS X (was: writing integer with fwrite)

[Joe Koski]

Samir,

First, I tried gfortran on three old Fortran codes: one encountered an
internal compiler error (known), one compiled but failed at execution, and
the third worked properly. In other words, gfortran is still "alpha" and not
ready to be a work horse yet.

Is your system finding g77 properly? I have attempted to build octave, but
had it fail later in the build. In my .bashrc (or you could alternatively
use .bash_profile) I have

PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH
export PATH
export GNUTERM=aqua
export DISPLAY=:0.0
export FC=g77
export CC=gcc

defined to help g77 and octave locate things. Can you compile Fortran code
outside the octave build? That's the first thing I would check, but no
guarantees...

Joe
