Now I am moving onto testing lapack. In step 11 from Nasser's page:

http://12000.org/my_notes/ada/index.htm

it requires that one has libgfortran.so installed. IS THIS FILE REALLY REQUIRED?

I have made a search on the debian site:

http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages#search_contents

and found for AMD machines:

/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.3/libgfortran.so 	gfortran-4.3 [amd64] 

(of version 4.3.5-4)

and 

/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.4/libgfortran.so 	gfortran-4.4 [amd64] 

(of version: 4.4.5-8)

I think I will install the version 4.4 as I have gnat-4.4"something".

Please let me know if installing "gfortran" in order to get libgfortran.so is a required step. I currently do not seem to have libgfortran.so already on my machine.


Thanks.
