That's not my experience. For example french/aster, a major FE suite, fails on both amd64 and ia64: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=ports/176326 As far as I know it fails on places other than fortran, but it is largely "a fortran port". OpenMPI is the only Fortran code that I routinely build outside of the ports. Please elaborate. I don't know much about the differences between OpenMPI and mpich. The latter seems to work: # pkg info -xr mpi mpich2-1.3.2.p1_1,5: scotch-5.1.12.b.e astk-serveur-1.11.0 blocksolve95-3.0_10 ParMetis-4.0_1 # Anton
