Ok. Try these:

Code:

$ export LDFLAGS="-L/usr/lib -lguile -lgmp -lcrypt -lm -lltdl"
$ export CFLAGS="-I/usr/include -pthread"
$ ./configure

jschiwal · 02-20-2009, 06:24 PM

I looked at the manpage for gfortran. I think you should use the '-std=legacy' option for f77 code.

what is the exact command ?

colucix · 02-21-2009, 06:48 PM

How is it possible f77 compiler comes out, now? Didn't you use the gfortran compiler? Please, tell it from the beginning and show us all the environment you set up before configuring mpb.

You have to put it in FFLAGS environment variable.

minaesm · 02-21-2009, 06:57 PM

the only thing that i did is this , but actually i've done th gfortran before not now while inastalling mpb

samrat_rao · 02-22-2009, 12:41 AM

How come doing this doesn't work:

Code:

./configure F77=gfortran

colucix · 02-22-2009, 12:43 AM

You see... now the configuration aborts at a very early stage, while trying to create a fortran executable for testing the compiler capabilities. What is actually changed between the two attempts? Have you checked config.log as suggested by the message? Moreover, look at the message you received when trying to do the symbolic link: f77: file exist. Are you sure that the already existing f77 is a link to gfortran?

Second, the first thing to do is to setup the correct environment, that is to tell to configure which tools (compilers, libraries, specific compiler options and so on) we want to use for the compilation. The first thing to do is

Code:

$ ./configure --help
<omitted>
Some influential environment variables:
  F77         Fortran 77 compiler command
  FFLAGS      Fortran 77 compiler flags
  LDFLAGS     linker flags, e.g. -L<lib dir> if you have libraries in a
              nonstandard directory <lib dir>
  CC          C compiler command
  CFLAGS      C compiler flags
  CPPFLAGS    C/C++ preprocessor flags, e.g. -I<include dir> if you have
              headers in a nonstandard directory <include dir>
  CPP         C preprocessor

Use these variables to override the choices made by `configure' or to help
it to find libraries and programs with nonstandard names/locations.

and take a look at the environment variables it recognizes. Then define those ones we need to customize the compilation. For example:

Code:

$ export F77='gfortran'
$ export FFLAGS='-std=legacy'
$ export LDFLAGS='-L/usr/lib -lguile -lgmp -lcrypt -lm -lltdl'
$ export CC='gcc'
$ export CFLAGS='-I/usr/include -pthread'
$ ./configure <configure's options here, if any>

From the output of configure --help you can look also at the options that configure accepts and see if some of them are useful for you. The most common one is --prefix which tells where to install the program. Others can be useful to enable or disable specific features of the software, depending on your needs or on the system you're working on.

minaesm · 02-22-2009, 03:23 AM

i've tried them all but again the same problem remains . the same problem rises when trying to install a similiar package written in C++ . it can't creat excutables . the fortran also .

colucix · 02-22-2009, 04:38 AM

Ok. Please, post the content of config.log, the one related to your post #38. Thanks.

configure: exit 77

colucix · 02-22-2009, 11:31 AM

Well, it not even tries to compile a test program. This means that the link f77 is not valid, that is it does not point to gfortran or any other fortran compiler. Check it out:

Code:

ls -l $(which f77)

At this point, please don't use the link f77 anymore... you don't actually need it. Just define

Code:

export F77=gfortran

minaesm · 02-22-2009, 11:48 AM

when i just write the command : ./configure the only problem is that "guile-config is broken" and there is no error in fortran compiler . for another program which i use it now on the same machine i have defined the same fortran compiler and it works . i wonder why this unsolvable problem appear while defining the environment variables ? it just remains and is driving me crazy .maybe i'm doing it in the wrong way , but i try to do it exactly the same as you tell me.thanks so much . also the same problem appears with another program the message is this :
