configure fails workaround: emerge f2c Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
thanks for including a workaround.
I guess you use a very new gcc which only builds the fortran compiler when "f77" is in USE. Not yet sure how to react on this change. For now I will make the ebuild fail with a message about the reason if g77 is not found. Bug #49284 seems to be related to this one.
