Description Gabriel Devenyi 2004-09-26 13:16:45 UTC

Following the instructions inside the ebuild to setup ifc, results in the following error

checking for main in -lieee... yes
checking for g77... no
checking for f2c... no
configure: error: Unable to configure: no Fortran compiler found

!!! ERROR: app-sci/scilab-3.0 failed.
!!! Function econf, Line 441, Exitcode 1
!!! econf failed
!!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, NOT this status message.

If configure fails to find "ifc", there is a problem with your IFC installation. SciLab builds with IFC without problem here. I suggest you reinstall "dev-lang/ifc".
