Dear,

I am trying to install MTL from tar ball mtl-2.1.2-22.tar.gz
<http://www.osl.iu.edu/download/research/mtl//mtl-2.1.2-22.tar.gz><http://www.osl.iu.edu/download/research/mtl//mtl-2.1.2-22.tar.gz>given
on the webpage. However, I recently had some problems on autoconf and
automake and after some search found out that, some version inconsistency
was the reason for this. I change to autoconf 2.13 and automake 1.4-p6. I
applied also the patch given on the mtl installation and download page,
however that patch is already for gcc version 4.02 and I have been using gcc
4.2.3 on ubuntu linux. Patch application succeded however(I think this was
the 1st time I applied a patch. I am glad I learnt how to do that besides.)
And following the order given on the download and installation page of the
mtl, I was at the configure step, I read from the INSTALL file, some extra
options have to supplied to work with LAPACK and so on.

I used ./configure --with-blais --with-lapack="-llapack -lblas -lg2c"

which went ok except
.
.
.
checking whether to use interface to LAPACK... yes
test: 2807: -lblas: unexpected operator
checking whether the Fortran 77 compiler (g77 ) works... yes
.
.
.
The I tried make and I got this errors

Could somebody direct me from this point on to find the point where I am
mistaken. Do I strictly need gcc 4.02? Or there is another workaround to
this problem...

Thanks for your help and time in advance.

Umut
