[Ifeffit] Fwd: Re: Fwd: ifeffit installation in Linux (Fedora 14)

[Matt Newville]

Hi Guoqiang,

Ah, I see and sorry for the trouble, especially I have had a fix (so
that gfortran is used) for this for a while now.   I believe you have
a reasonable solution, but the PGPLOT_install script in the svn
repository works better.   I tried this on Fedora14 x86_64 yesterday
revealed another problem, that I think I have fixed.  I'll try to get
that resolved and post a new PGPLOT_install script, and upload a
ifeffit 1.2.11d tarball.

Thanks

--Matt
