I am embarrassed to admit that I really did have a problem with compiling a simple Fortran program – because of the upgrade to Catalina! When I would try to compile w/ gfortran, I would get errors such as “cannot find -System”. I finally found this website which provided a solution (although I edited my .bash_profile to make the changes permanent): https://stackoverflow.com/questions/58278260/cant-compile-a-c-program-on-a-mac-after-upgrading-to-catalina-10-15
This allowed gfortran to compile (and run) and then I was able to configure openmpi (4.1.0). I am still trying to configure openmpi with gcc and g++ (as opposed to using clang and c++).
