Description of problem: The nf-config utility (provided by package netcdf-fortran-devel) is supposed to return the path where netcdf.mod is found when specifying the --fflags. On Fedora 26, it returns /usr/include, however netcdf.mod is found in a different directory, /usr/lib64/gfortran/modules. Thus when compiling software that queries nf-config to find the module include path, it gets a path that doesn't have netcdf.mod, and compilation fails when it does not find netcdf.mod Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): $ rpm -qa | grep netcdf-fortran netcdf-fortran-4.4.4-6.fc26.x86_64 netcdf-fortran-devel-4.4.4-6.fc26.x86_64 netcdf-fortran-debuginfo-4.4.4-6.fc26.x86_64 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. nf-config --fflags 2. 3. Actual results: It returns a path that does not include netcdf.mod (/usr/include) Expected results: a) It should return the path that does contain netcdf.mod or b) netcdf.mod should be moved to /usr/include Additional info:
This message is a reminder that Fedora 26 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 26. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '26'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 26 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Fedora 26 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2018-05-29. Fedora 26 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
This is still problem in Fedora 29: nf-config --version --fflags netCDF-Fortran 4.4.4 -I/usr/include netcdf.inc is located in /usr/include but netcdf.mod (and several other .mod files) are located in /usr/lib64/gfortran/modules which is missing from the include path.
