FWIW, this didn't work for me, as I want to use my own build of gfortran trunk. It did correctly use the correct gfortran binary as specified by the FC env. variable, but it still insists on linking against libgfortran.so.4 (installed by the system package manager) and not the libgfortran.so.5 from my own gfortran installation (found both on LD_RUN_PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH). I tried -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=... but that didn't work any better. Gah, I hate cmake.. Any ideas? -- Janne Blomqvist
