Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Vincent Fourmond <fourmond@debian.org>

* Package name : g95
Version : 0.9
Upstream Author : Andy Vaught <andyv@firstinter.net>
* URL : http://g95.org/

Programming Lang: C, Fortran
Description : The G95 fortran compiler

G95 is a stable, production Fortran 95 compiler available for multiple
cpu architectures and operating systems. It is still being actively
developped, and is able to compile a fair number of Fortan librairies
available.

Do you happen to know whether g95 uses the same ABI as either gfortran
or g77? Because if not, maintaining FORTRAN library packages in Debian
is going to become even more complicated, unless we are satisfied with
just providing the g95 compiler but not providing sets of libraries that
work with it.

best regards,

I am pretty sure that g95 doesn't use the same ABI as gfortran. However, I=
=20
believe that it does use the g77 ABI. I would say that we should start=20
thinking about a Fortran policy. I would say that Debian's default compiler=
=20
for Fortran should be gfortran from the GCC.
