Hello Matt,

Thanks for your prompt reply Alain – I’m currently using gfortran v4.2 (i686-apple-darwin8-gfortran-4.2).

Probably not directly related to your compilation problem, I am surprised about your gfortran-4.2 version ... it should be i686-apple-darwin9 for OSX 10.5 (unless you compiled your gcc toolchain by yourself and didn't modify the --host or --target options). Maybe check if you have installed the right gfortran version ... may be outdated or broken

Anyway, my gcc/gfortran 4.2 says ...
gfortran-4.2 -v

The ABINIT 5.4.4 version was what I was using last year; however, it cannot function past 1 Jan 2009, hence the patched version. It’s currently installed and working on the server that a few of us are using – but I would also like to run small jobs on my MacBook (so the v5.4.4p is necessary for consistency).

Poor idea of the time bomb.

The file defs_fftdata.mod resides in /abinit-5.4.4p/src/defs (though it was not there prior to compiling defs_fftdata.f90, so perhaps gfortran is in at least some way working).

I have some difficulties to give you efficient help because I cannot reproduce the error although I am using the same config - MBP/OSX 10.5.6/gfortan-4.2.1 and abinit-5.4.4p. What I did ...

tar xzf abinit-5.4.4p.tar.gz
cd abinit-5.4.4p/
mkdir tmp-build
cd tmp-build
../configure --with-cpp-optflags="-DpgiFortran -DNDEBUG" CC=gcc-4.2 CPP=cpp-4.2 CXX=g++-4.2 FC=gfortran-4.2 CFLAGS="-O2" CXXFLAGS="-O2" FCFLAGS="-O2"
make

... and it goes up to the end and produces a working exec:
otool -L src/main/abinis
src/main/abinis:
    /usr/lib/libgcc_s.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.0.0)
    /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 111.1.3)

The --with-cpp-optflag is only relevant to netcdf. The *FLAGS= only controls optimization. My gcc/gfortran 4.2 compiler and libs are in the path. If your compiler configuration differs, you may have to export PATH= and export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH= before the configure. Building in a separate directory is highly recommended. Don't try a parallel build - maybe interfaces_*.F90 compilation is invoked before the .mod is in the right place.


Kind regards,

Alain
