Why? One might well want the option to use any of the several FORTRAN compilers from ports. > 2) The various ports that use Fortran should use gfortran42 > installed with lang/gcc42. The various ports that use Fortran should be checked to see what version of FORTRAN they want. I suspect the easiest fix is to have $FC empty by default and for dependent ports to output a helpful diagnostic. A better fix would be to make ports dependent on an appropriate compiler port, but that's a lot of work and some users will prefer ifc anyway. > -- > Steve -- Bob Bishop +44 (0)118 940 1243 rb@gid.co.uk fax +44 (0)118 940 1295
