If you post a log of what happened, we might be able to figure out what
went wrong. :)

Actually, I believe that now you do need gfortran just to run the
binaries. It's not the compiler that you need, but rather the shared

I googled up "redhat gfortran" and I think "yum install gcc-gfortran"
will install what you need.
