I'm using Scilab 2.3 (not 2.3.1!) on my two Debian boxes. It is compiled from the original scilab-2.3-src.tar.gz file (length 5186183, md5 sum: d4fc8537ffdb3b355841c737b26b4877). Just before a minute I've checked it once again - I've untarred the source file in the temporary directory, typed the './configure' command (without any switches), and then 'make all'. There were no problems. I have installed following C and Fortran packages : gcc 2.7.2.1-8 f2c 960717-0 fort77 1.14-1 g77 0.5.20-1
My suggestion is: 1) Try running './configure' without any options, and then 'make all' 2) If it does not help, check configuration of your system (is f2c, fort77 and g77 installed?) BTW. The libf2c.so is provided by the "f2c" package (version 960717-0 in my system), however it is version libf2c.so.2.1, not libf2c.so.0.
