[Bldg-sim] conflicts in g77 when installing ESP-r on Ubuntu8.10

[Jon Hand]

This issue is probably best dealt with via email outside of the Bldg-sim list.  ESP-r is
close to a new release which will allow it to be compiled with much more recent
versions of the GNU compiler suite.  There are a number of documents which
can be forwarded about the process of building your own version of ESP-r.   Most
users report good results for Ubuntu 8.04.

To help that separate discussion out we need to find out what version of the GCC
compilers are installed on your machine.  E.g.   gcc --version    and   gfortran --version

Subject: [Bldg-sim] conflicts in g77 when installing ESP-r on Ubuntu8.10

Dear all,

I have an internal compiler error for a g77 compiler when trying to install the latest release of ESP-r. The code does install smoothly on a similar laptop with a previous Ubuntu version.

So, I thought to downgrade from Ubuntu8.10 to a previous one. However, I do not find a lot of information to do so.

Any suggestions? Or someone who solved such an error: "g77: Internal compiler error: program f771 got fatal signal 11"?

Thanks,
