Jeff, The new lammpi and openmpi packages that I maintain now use gcc4 I also see that raster3d, pdftk, apbs, apbs-mpi, ccp4-onlylibs-dev, ccp4, mosflm, mosflm-small, plplot, maloc, maloc-mpi, pdb2pqr and tinker use gcc4 as well. Most of those are probably packages that are maintained by William Scott so I doubt we will have much trouble getting those bumped in a timely fashion. It unfortunate we have to go through this but I would much rather see packages depend on gfortran than g95. The development model for g95 is just plain weird. A single developer without a cvs and no testsuite. The gfortran compiler has already outstripped g95 in performance and the depth of their testsuite provides a hedge against accidental regressions (not present with g95 snapshots). Jack ps You can see from...
http://www.polyhedron.com/pb05/linux/f90bench_p4.html http://www.polyhedron.com/pb05/linux/f90bench_AMD.html ...that while not as fast as some of the commercial compilers, gfortran is significantly faster than g95. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
