I only have a SuSE 8.0 to look at, and that only has a static libg2c, but $ rpm -qf /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i486-suse-linux/2.95.3/libg2c.a g77-2.95.3-216 so a good guess is that you need to install g77 from the SuSE 8.1 install disks. -- O__ ---- Peter Dalgaard Blegdamsvej 3 c/ /'_ --- Dept. of Biostatistics 2200 Cph.
