 Martin,
I am a bit confused. If you want gfortran to pass -m32, I would suspect 
 you are
 running i386 fink in which case the gcc44 package will have built a 32-bit 
 native
 compiler that generates i386 code. You shouldn't have to pass it anything at 
 all.

I have not yet had enough time to investigate, but I saw the following 
failure in the configure phase of apbs on 10.6/32bit:

It tries to link a fortran and a C module in order to find out the 
fortran name mangling scheme. This fails because the fortran-compiled 
*.o file is of wrong architecture. I think for the C part it uses 
/usr/bin/gcc with the Fink-supplied automatic -arch i386 and for the 
fortran part it uses gfortran from gcc44. But have to confirm this when 
I boot into 10.6 next time.

 Regarding your question about how to get gfortran to accept the -arch

 it can't. That is an enhancement that Apple added to their gcc which wasn't 
 (and is unlikely
 to ever be) ported to FSF gcc. The approach FSF gcc uses (which we have 
 supported since
 I assumed maintainership) is a 64-bit (for powerpc/i386) or 32-bit (for 
 x86_64) multilib.
 If you build gcc44 under x86_64, it is built as a x86_64 native compiler 
 (which executes
 and generates 64-bit code as the default). If you want to generate 32-bit 
 code with this
 compiler, you pass it -m32 just like our compiler wrappers do with the Snow 
 Leopard compilers.
 Keep in mind that if you have been explicitly linking to -lgfortran using 
 -L%p/lib/gcc44/lib
 this will have to be changed to -L%p/lib/gcc4.4/lib/i386. Likewise, if you 
 are on i386 fink
 and want to generate 64-bit code you will pass -m64 and use 
 -L%p/lib/gcc4.4/lib/x86_64 if
 you are explicitly linking.

OK, now one only needs to figure out how to transmit the -m32 flag to 
gfortran in all the situations where it is needed. Not easy.

2009-08-31 Thread Jack Howarth
  I've never understood why folks want to use zsh in
these scripts rather than sh or bash. While it would
be nice to limit ourselves to x86_64 fink on 10.6, we
we will have some unhappy campers who don't have EMT64
capable processors on SL.

 this places the system path /usr/bin in front of Fink's path.

Does putting . %p/bin/init.sh (or whatever the zsh-syntax is) at the
beginning of the script body solve it?

No, because this does not place /sw/var/lib/fink/path-prefix-10.6/ on 
the PATH. And just placing this one there would be a solution for 10.6, 
but not for 10.5. Meaning complicated if clauses or different packages 
for 10.5 and 10.6. That's what I meant by quite a mess.


BTW, apbs is by no means the only package using zsh, there are several 
dozen of them.
