    I have successfully compiled the latest version of IT++, downloaded from svn repository, on openSuSE 11.0 x86_64 using acml4.1.0 and gfortran (gcc version 4.3.1). 
An interesting issue was that in order to detect the acml library (acml_mp) one needs to install libgfortran.so.2.0.0, while the default version, installed in openSuSE, is libgfortran.so.3.0.0.  
I have found this issue annoying since one needs to downgrade to libgfortran.so.2.0.0 instead of using the latest version. Perhaps in future releases this issue should be fixed.

      Hi Adam

      Yes, it seems that acml4.1.0 is not compatible with GCC 4.3

      One could overcome this incompatibility by downgrading libgfortran as suggested above.

      regards

      Hi Bogdan,

      I guess this issue should be discussed on ACML forums, because this closed-source library is linked to a particular version of libgfortran. Anyway, I recommend using ATLAS and FFTW instead.

      BR,
