g77 missing

Hi,
I am using openSUSE 11.0. To run a software (it is a precompiled binary), i need gcc and g77 as it asks for the same. But openSUSE 11.0 has gfortran. So i am stuck real bad. Should i download the GNU Compiler Collection (version 4.3.2) and install it, and does it have g77? What are my other options?

Hi
What about gcc43-fortran and use the -ff2c switch?

I am not familiar with this stuff, so i don’t get what you are saying. I have gcc and gfortran installed, both of the 4.3 version. I am getting errors like this:

g77 -fPIC -fno-second-underscore -O -o cpex08 cpexcc.f cpex08.f -L/usr/local/ncl-ncarg_5.0.0/lib -lncarg -lncarg_gks -lncarg_c -lX11 -lXext
g77: Command not found.

The compile and link failed.

Does this info help?

I am having the same prob. How did you manage to get over this?..
Thanks

Hi
Have a look at the man page for gfortran to see all the fortran options,
else maybe installing f2c may help? I’m no fortran compiler person
either…

Nothing much, i just created a symbolic link ‘g77’ to ‘gfortran’ in /usr/bin itself. Otherwise one can use the configure option F77=gfortran or FC=gfortran
