Somebody from the gfortran team told that they were dependent on the
compiler version. Do we take that into account?
Hi Patrice,
Here is the latest from the GCC gfortran developers:
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/fortran/2007-10/msg00324.html
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/fortran/2007-10/msg00325.html
Since there is no guarantee, it is (at least in theory) possible for a
Fedora GCC update to cause *.mod file incompatibilities. It seems
rather unlikely, though.
Maybe this issue could be best handled as a check-list item when GCC
updates occur? There are only a small number of Fedora packages that
provide *.mod files. And they could be re-built whenever GCC is
updated.
What do you think?
Ed
