This information must be given to it manually by defining a certain C macro in the CPPFLAGS environment variable before executing the configure script. Assuming that gfortran uses the same argument-passing conventions that g77 uses (if it doesn't, then the "make test" will fail) then please try the following: 1. Go to the top-level source directory. 2. Perform steps 3 through 5 described near the end of the file INSTALL.html. 3. Define the C macro "f2cFortran" in the environment variable CPPFLAGS: export CPPFLAGS=-Df2cFortran or setenv CPPFLAGS -Df2cFortran depending on your user-shell. 4. Perform steps 6 through 9 described near the end of the file INSTALL.html. Regards, Steve Emmerson
