After installing the new glibc (RHBA-2000:079-08) , fortran programs give a strange warning at compile time. Any program like program main print*,'Helo world' end Will compile saying >g77 main.f >/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/2.96/libg2c.a(open.o): In function `f_open': >open.o(.text+0x4e6): the use of `tempnam' is dangerous, better use `mkstemp' > >Compilation finished at Tue Nov 28 15:31:37 Best regards Thomas A. Poulsen Dpt. of Solid Mech. Tech. Univ. of Denmark
libf2c uses tempnam internally and glibc warns about uses of this function during link time. gcc-g77-2.96-65 will include Toon Moene's fix for this.
