[netCDF #VGI-905197]: libnetcdff.so: Fortran runtime library

> Dear Sir or Madam,
>
> We've compiled the netcdf-3.6.2 with gcc 4.1.x for our users some time
> ago.
>
> Leaving this as it has been but upgrading to gcc 4.3.x they've
> encountered some problems regarding libgfortran (propably due to ABI
> changes http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-bugs/2007-10/msg00250.html) and
> linking to the new libgfortran.so.3 when compiling their programs).
> The correct way, I think would be to have libnetcdff.so referencing the
> libgfortran it was compiled against, but it doesn't:

> m222086@visen:~$ldd /sw/etch-ia32/netcdf-3.6.2-gcc/lib/libnetcdff.so
> linux-gate.so.1 =>  (0xffffe000)
> libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/libc.so.6 (0xb7d69000)
> /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x80000000)
>
> I've tried it with the daily snapshot (yesterday) and the issue is still

Howdy Nicolai!

I have applied your patch and if it passes the daily testing it will be in
tomorrow's snapshot.

Thanks!
