Hi Kevin, The new config files are not read by default, instead they much be copied to the basic file name. An example for 64-bit linux would be: copy Makeinc.linux64_gfortran_fedora to Makeinc.linux64_gfortran - *then* run "make all" From what you wrote, you ran "make all" and "make install" without moving/renaming the file, which means the -fno-whole-file flag for gfortran 4.6 is not picked up, which is why you are still seeing these runtime errors with the decoders.
