gfortran presence check? #9

Open dimpase opened 7 years ago

dimpase commented 7 years ago

It seems that on Linux one often deals with absence of libgfortran on the system. Can we have a check in the installer, so that it bails out, with a meaningful message, if

import ctypes
ctypes.util.find_library("gfortran") is  None 

holds true? (This check, naturally, is only needed if libgfortran is not bundled with Sage).
