Re: NCL 5 libgfortran

Hi Siji,

I tried to build NCL statically with the gfortran V4.1.1 library, but
it protested. I don't have access to gfortran V4.2.1 as we still seem
to be using gfortran V4.1.1 and even V4.1.0 in some places.

I know with other shared libraries that have been missing, people
put in a link, like:

    ln -s /usr/local/lib/libgfortran.so.2 /usr/local/lib/libgfortran.so.1

But I would only do something like this as a last resort. I googled
this issue, but didn't see anything useful.

The other option is to install gfortran V4.1.1 somewhere else, so you
can access the libgfortran.so.1 file, or you can try building NCL from
source code.

Has anybody else run into this problem and come up with a work-around?
