Hello,

I got errors when compiling METv3.1, saying ' /usr/bin/ld: cannot find
-lgfortran', details of which are as follows ( the attachment is the
usr_defs.mk file):

Xiaoxi,

The important part of the error message is the linker complaining that
it cannot find the library libgfortran.a:

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lgfortran

Once you find this library on your system, please include the folder
with that library in it in the user_defs.mk file
like this:

CXX_LIBS=-L{folder_containing_libgfortran}

For example, on my system, I found the libgfortran library like this:

$ find /usr -name 'libgfortran.a' 2>/dev/null
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.4/libgfortran.a

Then, I would add this to my user_defs.mk:

CXX_LIBS=-L/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.4

If you have any other questions, please let me know.

Thanks,

Paul
