Hello Ralph and all,
I think I have updated autoconf succesfully...
Now it says:
configure: error: Fortran compiler cannot create executables
If I check the log it says:
checking for Fortran compiler version
$FC --version >&5
configure:2460: ifort --version >&5

configure:2555: error: in

configure:2557: error: Fortran compiler cannot create executables
First I am not sure why it goes through all those tests to find the
version and doesn't stop once one test has been successful but that is
probably not part of the problem....
I still don't see a conftest...
As previously if I use -g only as my FCFLAGS instead of -c -O2 -convert
big_endian -free -assume byterecl , configure runs fine but then of
course make doesn't....
Any insights would be greatly appreciated,
Have a great week-end,
Thanks,
Cheers,
Eve-Marie
