Apologies for adding to the the confusion... When I wrote "/usr/local/bin/egfortran from the g95 package", I meant to say that you can get egfortran by installing the "g95" package. This g95 package is built as part of gcc-8.3.0, so the gfotran packaged in g95 is the same as the one you built from source. > Why is the package gfortran obsolete? If memory serves, a gfortran package did exist independently of the gcc port but was not really used. There were conflicts between it and the gcc-libs (so basically with almost everything), so it was decided to remove it about 4 or 5 years ago. That's the reason for the confusing message you got. Brad's diff will update gcc to 8.4.0 and the g95-8.4.0 package will bundle the corresponding egfortran.
