Is there a way to make a statically linked binary with fortran in OS
X? For much of the past year I have been using:
gfortran taxsim.for -static-libgfortran -static-libgcc
but since January I only get the error message;
ld: library not found for -lm.
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status?
This is OS X 11,2,3 Big Sur and fortran version 6.3.0. I need static
linking because my users are not developers and do not have Xcode or
gcc installed. This is free software. I have seen postings from 2015
suggesting that I rename libquadmath.0.dylib, which I did try but
which did not help.
Of course I have no need for lquad precision variables, which I
understand is the source of the problem.
