Hi all, I'm having an odd issue while trying to install MPB. Just as note, I have successfully installed and run Meep, and am a unix novice.
When I try to compile, I get this odd error:* **configure: error: linking to Fortran libraries from C fails. *The full output is quoted below. I saw that this behavior was previously traced to an error in the "configure" file (http://lists.debian.org/debian-superh/2009/12/msg00014.html), found the patch on debian, and applied it. There were 11 other patches which I also applied to their respective files. Alas, still get the same failed compile and output. I'm a little confused that I was able to install Meep without seeing this problem. As I mentioned previously, I'm a novice at unix and would appreciate any help you could offer. ./configure --with-libctl=/Users/Patrick/Documents/Meep/install/share/libctl --prefix=/Users/Patrick/Documents/MPB/install F77=gfortran-mp-4.5 checking for vendor f77 to be used instead of g77... checking for f77... gfortran-mp-4.5 checking for Fortran 77 compiler default output... a.out checking whether the Fortran 77 compiler works... yes checking whether we are cross compiling... no checking for suffix of executables... checking for suffix of object files... o checking whether we are using the GNU Fortran 77 compiler... yes checking whether gfortran-mp-4.5 accepts -g... yes checking for vendor cc to be used instead of gcc... checking for cc... cc checking whether we are using the GNU C compiler... yes checking whether cc accepts -g... yes checking for cc option to accept ANSI C... none needed checking for ranlib... ranlib checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes checking for sqrt in -lm... yes checking how to get verbose linking output from gfortran-mp-4.5... rm: conftest.dSYM: is a directory -v checking for Fortran 77 libraries... rm: conftest.dSYM: is a directory -lcrt1.10.5.o -L/opt/local/lib/gcc45/gcc/x86_64-apple-darwin10/4.5.4 -L/opt/local/lib/gcc45/gcc/x86_64-apple-darwin10/4.5.4/../../.. -lm -lgfortran -lgcc_s.10.5 -lgcc_ext.10.5 -lSystem checking for dummy main to link with Fortran 77 libraries... rm: conftest.dSYM: is a directory unknown *configure: error: linking to Fortran libraries from C fails* See `config.log' for more details.
