AFAIK, that library comes with the Sun Fortran compiler, and the names of
the routines it contains are non-portable. You need to look at what the call
to that routine in the POP11 code actually does. Also, I believe f771 is the
first pass of g77.

That wouldn't help - the Pop-11 code doesn't call the missing symbol directly, but rather calls a Lapack routine which in turn calls something from (probably) the standard Fortran run-time library. I think the best strategy is to use g77 with a verbose option switched on to find out what libraries it links. Aaron - I'll try to set this up on Solaris later and pass it on to you so you try it on Linux.

There is a reference to your error relating to linking LAPACK with ifc at:

Does this help?
