Try this: 1. Go to the top-level source-directory. 2. Execute the command "make distclean". 3. Execute the command "./configure CC=gcc CPPFLAGS='-DpgiFortran -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64' CFLAGS='-m64 -fPIC' LD_MATH=-lm". 4. Execute the command "make". 5. Execute the command "make test". 6. Execute the command "make install". Redirect both the standard output and standard error stream from the above commands into their appropriate files so that, if something goes wrong, you can send me the files.
