Iirc you had problems with -fortran, because you have packages that really need fortran. My suggestion was for people like Peter, who have no problems without fortran. It shows only packages which could perform better, if a fortran compiler is available and otherwise fallback to a C implementation. At least, I think it does :) > Dale > :-) :-) Michael
