Hi Warren:

Once I say this, you will experience a Homer Simpson "Duh" moment.

Within YDL try:

#yum search "*fortran*"

Told ya...

By the way, the current fortran programming projects have moved onto gfortran;
which is available within YDL 5.  The older versions of fortran and YDL do not
have the components (read libraries) to handle the current standard.  From
previous discussions I suspect this fact will matter to you a great deal.

Best wishes...
