I already have a port of f2c and a new f77 wrapper to deal with f2c+gcc. The includes the runtime libraries libI77 and libF77. > > The sticky bit is what how to handle libI77 and libF77.. > g77 has combined these libraries into is libg77. If g77 were brought into the tree, I think we could delete src/gnu/usr.bin/cc/f77, src/lib/{f2c, libI77, libF77}, and src/usr.bin/f2c. -- Steve To Unsubscribe: send mail to majord...@freebsd.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
