molden

[Patrick Dupre]

Hello,

I wanted to install molden
I followed the instructions:
https://snapcraft.io/install/molden/fedora

but

/snap/snap/molden/current/molden 
/snap/snap/molden/current/molden: error while loading shared libraries: libgfortran.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

fedora32 provides libgfortran.so.5

Is it fixable?

Thanks

Usually one of the compat packages will provide the older libraries.

So see if there is a compat package or 2 for gfortran still.  I know there
used to be one.

Install both and symbolic link libgfortran.so.3 to each library and see if
either one works for the app.

THe compat I find only has so.1 but has version 4 so whatever OS the
binaries were built may not have been fedora but .1 (version 4) may be
backwards compatible.

About the only option would be to either find a version of molden built to
support one of the libs you have, or download source code and compile it
yourself.

Quick checking says Redhat 5 (out of support years ago) only has .4, so .3
is really really old, nothing current is likely to have what that compiled
executable needs.

If the source code is very old, no idea how easy it would be to compile
with the current gfortran, so you may want to have the compat libs/dev to
compile against.

At my former work a "mission critical" package from the European Space
Agency needed libgfortran.so.3.  At the time, Ubuntu had several older
libgfortran versions.   On Fedora I just built the latest GCC-6 version (I
think it was 6.5) to get libgfortran.so.3.
