[FLASH-USERS] Compiling the latest FLASH on mac OSX (Lion)

[John ZuHone]

Asif,

Does this error come in the linking step at the end? If you haven't already, you might need to add -lgfortran to the link step. 

I was under the impression gfortran did not come with Xcode and needed to be installed from a separate source. At least that's what I've had to do.

Did you compile OpenMPI or install a binary? 

Best,

John Z
