[petsc-dev] Gfortran Fix for "library not found for -lSystem" macOS Big Sur

Tue Dec 22 13:33:28 CST 2020

Hello All,

If anyone is on macOS and using brew to get gfortran, you may find it suddenly doesn’t work anymore.

Fix is to add /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk/usr/lib to $LIBRARY_PATH in startup shell file, as per this SO post.
