I know the original poster has probably solved the problem or moved on, but I
wanted to write this as a potentially helpful reference for others.
I ran into a very similar problem under different circumstances. I am calling
code written in Python/Numpy by shelling out with MATLAB's ``system`` command.
The solution that I found is described here:
http://www.mathworks.ca/matlabcentral/newsreader/view_thread/162466
To summarize, MATLAB tries to force code called from within it to use libraries
it provides. Unfortunately, these are often fairly old, and can be incompatible
with precompiled external code. Some people seem to be removing the packaged
libraries and linking them to the correct versions elsewhere, but a less
invasive approach is to modify the file
.matlab7rc.sh (in MATLAB's bin/ directory)
so that ``LDPATH_PREFIX`` points to the right directory. This is described by
user "luquesky luque," and worked for me. In my case (64-bit Linux), I changed
LDPATH_PREFIX=''
to
LDPATH_PREFIX='/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu'
and saved the modified shell script to my home directory. Apparently, you can
also just save it to the project directory you're working from to avoid
user-wide changes. I think the path may not be the same for different
distributions, but you could try
find / 2>/dev/null | grep libgfortran.so.3
to verify.

Re: [Meep-discuss] Question about running MEEP in Ubuntu
Dear Peng,
have you tried to start meep not from matlab environment but from ubuntu's
shell which you prefer to use?
And have you installed meep from debian's repository or compiled it by
yourself?
BR,
Alexandr.

[Meep-discuss] Question about running MEEP in Ubuntu
Hello, Dear MEEP developers and users:
I am a new user of MEEP software. I currently installed MEEP in Ubuntu,
which is suggested by Professor Steve as the best way to install MEEP.
But when I call meep from Matlab by:
unix('meep test.ctl >& test.out')
The output file gives me an error below:
meep: /usr/local/MATLAB/R2011a/sys/os/glnxa64/libgfortran.so.3:
version `GFORTRAN_1.4' not found (required by /usr/lib/liblapack.so.3gf)
Could you please help me solve this problem? Expecting your kind
considerations and answers!
Thanks very much!
Best Regards,
Peng Wang
