Hi List!

I've tried building this a few times over the last couple of years, on 
different machines, and always get stuck at the build stage, currently I 
have this set of errors:

------------------------------------------------------
There were 3 errors during execution of the CST
These must be corrected before compilation can proceed
------------------------------------------------------

------------------------------------------------------
Warnings were generated during execution of the CST
------------------------------------------------------

CST error 1:
   -> Configuration script for thorn FORTRAN returned exit code 1
      Error message: 'Fortran thorn requires that a Fortran compiler is 
defined, but F77 = 'none' and F90 = 'none'.  Aborting.'


CST error 2:
   -> Configuration script for thorn LORENE returned exit code 1
      (no error message)


CST error 3:
   -> Configuration script for thorn MPI returned exit code 1
      (no error message)

------------------------------------------------------

I have all the compilers that I think are needed, and have also added 
the dependencies listed at 
https://docs.einsteintoolkit.org/et-docs/Simplified_Tutorial_for_New_Users

I have also tried things like:

export F77=/usr/bin/f77
export F90=/usr/bin/f95

to no avail.  As for installed packages, these seem relevant to the 
errors . . .

Can anyone assist with this?  I am using Xubuntu 14.04 64-bit.

Cheers,

Ian.
