    flag -lipc??

    I don't think this problem is specific to building the pgplot graping library I am trying to install on Mac OS X 3.10.1

    I incounter this error when I run make

    /usr/bin/ld: can't locate file for: -lipc
    collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
    make: *** [pgdemo1] Error 1

    What is -lipc?

    (I've installed gcc(Xcode), g77, X11 and X11SDK)

    Thanks,
    Peter

    No idea

    What warnings (ie unresolved symbols) do you get if you remove it from the makefile?
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.

    When I remove the flag I get the following errors which make me realize my problem is a g77 problem.

    rm -f pgpack
    g77 -fno-backslash -o pgdemo1 /Users/peter/Desktop/pgplot/examples/pgdemo1.f -L`pwd` -lpgplot -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lX11 -lm
    /usr/bin/ld: warning prebinding disabled because of undefined symbols
    /usr/bin/ld: Undefined symbols:
    restFP
    saveFP
    collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
    make: *** [pgdemo1] Error 1
