Dear Cygwin users and developers,
I am trying to run some models based on the ROMS ocean modeling system. And
although I mainly run such models on Linux supercomputing systems, I
sometimes use Cygwin to make test runs. However, whenever I install Cygwin
on a new PC, I often find that my set up on an older PC I had been using
doesn't work properly. After looking deeper into the issues, it seems that
proper compilation requires that the same fortran compiler (gfortran in
this case) be used to compile the necessary components.
And as far as I understand, these components would mainly be:
- zlib
- hdf5
- netcdf
- netcdf-fortran
- openmpi
As the gfortran compiler version number used for these different components
is not indicated whenever I run cygwin setup-x86_64.exe, I am left to guess
which version numbers for each to select. Of course, another option would
be to accept the defaults for some components, and then compile my own
version of say, netcdf, but this attempt almost always fails, and I'm not
sure if this is due to conflicts with the already existing cygwin setup.
Given the issues above, would anyone have any suggestions or
recommendations on how to best achieve the setup I would like to have? I
will greatly appreciate any help.
Best regards,
Lawrence

for what I am aware the problem is only present with
fortran modules if you are using them.
C interface are not involved
zlib should not be involved as it has no fortran specific modules
same for hdf5.
Now the current gfortran has
$ zcat
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-cygwin/9.3.0/finclude/ieee_arithmetic.mod|head -n 1
GFORTRAN module version '15' created from ieee_arithmetic.F90
openmpi was built with last gcc so it is aligned
$ zcat /usr/lib/mpi.mod |head -n 1
GFORTRAN module version '15' created from mpi-ignore-tkr.F90
netcdf-fortran needs a rebuild
$ zcat /usr/include/netcdf.mod | head -n 1
GFORTRAN module version '14' created from netcdf4.f90
Give me some days for an update of the package
And I will need to re-build for test gcc 10 also,
but it is less urgent
Regards
Marco
