The fix here only applies to Source-Code CDs dated 30 October 2000.
On some machines where the DOS PATH is long (for example, some Windows 2000 machines), the BuildGP supplied on the CD may incorrectly say that the relevant fortran compiler (LF95, LF90 or F77L3) is not on the DOS PATH. If so, the fix below should solve the problem.
1. Download the file BLDGPFIX.EXE (365K) and put it into the directory in which your GEMPACK is to be installed (usually, C:\GP).
2. Go to a DOS box and change into this directory.
3. Issue the following command.
bldgpfix gpdir *GP-DIR* copycd *CD-DRIVE* licfix
where you should replace
*GP-DIR* by the directory in which GEMPACK is to be installed (usually C:\GP),
*CD-DRIVE* by the letter of your CD drive (often E:).
For example, the command may be
bldgpfix gpdir c:\gp copycd e: licfix
or
bldgpfix gpdir d:\gp70 copycd h: licfix
4. Proceed as in GPD-6 to copy files from the CD and then to build libraries and executable images.
Note. If you need to run BuildGP again later (see for example section 3.7.1 of GPD-6), you should run BLDGPFIX.EXE rather than BuildGP.EXE
