Bug Description

I've tried to use the library libcgns (3.1.3.4-1) provided by Ubuntu 13.04 to compile a third party program which require a static library with FORTRAN functions.
I've discovered that the library is delivered only in the dynamic .so format and that the FORTRAN option was disabled at compile time (nm -D do not show any fortran function i.e. cg_open_f).
Would you please recompile it with FORTRAN enabled (and maybe also mpi) and deliver also the .a format?
Actually I've recompiled it from sources, but I would prefer to use the Ubuntu shipped library.
Thank you!

Thanks for the report. Since Ubuntu takes libcgns directly from Debian, without any changes, it would make more sense to file the request in their bug tracking system. See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?repeatmerged=no&src=libcgns and http://www.debian.org/Bugs/Reporting on how to do that. If you need help, feel free to reply in this bug report.
