Linker errors with Fortran to C library - /usr/lib/libf2c.so: undefined reference to 'MAIN__'

Question

So I\'m having a little trouble with the fortran to C library. Now, before I get into the problem, I can tell you that I cannot use g2c as some forum sites have suggested.

Answer 1

Well,

sudo rm /usr/lib/libf2c.so && sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libf2c.a /usr/lib/libf2c.so

will delete /usr/lib/libf2c.so, hence the new error you're getting.

So as a minimum you'll have to reinstall that library and link to the new version, and then see where you are.
