Description Justin Lecher (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-06-22 05:31:30 UTC
We have to write some lines what people can or should do in order to use the support non gfortran compilers. Currently an installation of ifc would fullfill the dep but will fail if nothing else is done.

Different solution would be to test in the fortran-2.eclass for all compilers like

tpye -p ${FC} || type -p foo || type -p bar || die "emerge gcc[fortran]
