The solution involve me directly specifying the lib and include directories for gmp and mpfr, as well as the LD_LIBRARY_PATH. I'm not sure which one did the trick. New Question: I was hoping that install the gcc set of compilers would give me g77, but it does not seem like it did. What do I need to do the explicitly get this compiler as well? Thanks again, Frank
