I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 and I'm trying to install libgfortran2 for some software. However, I can't find the package in apt-get or aptitude, even after updating. How can I get this installed?
A:
Looks like libgfortran2 came from the gcc 4.2.* series which is no longer part of the current releases. If you are on an older Ubuntu release, try looking for it via http://packages.ubuntu.com. Else use libgfortran3 from the newer GCC releases which e.g. part of Ubuntu 10.04.
