Hi Riccardo, it seems your problem is related to the building of .a libraries, more problably due to "ar", instead of "ranlib"... I sort of remeber I got a similar problem on intel Mac, and the solution was to set AR and ARFLAGS to some standard values (in my case they where set in a different, mac-oriented, way), like
AR = ar ARFLAGS = ruv actually, don't know if this is your case... anyway, if you didn't already, see also the section related to Mac at: http://www.quantum-espresso.org/wiki/index.php/Installation cheers andrea > > i have a problem installing Quantum Espresso on my Mac Intel (MacBook > Pro).
