William created a ticket, to check for a Fortran compiler on any platform other
than OS X.
http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/8026
and marked it as "critical".
It was actually a duplicate of something I'd created a couple of tickets
earlier.
http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/8024
I then created a ticket
http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/8052
which fixes this, and also does a bit more, in that it checks the gortran
version is the same as gcc and g++, also checks if
SAGE_FORTRAN_LIB
points to a library, and is of the right type (32 or 64-bit) on Solaris. (On
other platforms, the old test, which I put in some time back, was that
SAGE_FORTRAN_LIB actually pointed to a file that existed). The check is now a
bit more sophisticed on Solaris, in that it does check the file is of the
correct type.
There's some quite detailed instructions about how to test this on
1) Every platform except OS X
2) OS X
3) Solaris.
I've obviously checked this on bsd.math, but it could do with some more testers.
