dear all,
I am trying to compile XL Fortran in AIX 5.3. Ibm has provided the Expansion pack CD which has xlfrte9.1 using which I am trying to do the compilation.
When I install it from the CD then I get the following success mesgs (not the complete list):

File:
I:xlfrte 9.1.0.0


xlfrte 9.1.0.0 (Selected)
XL Fortran Runtime Environment

xlfrte.msg.en_US 9.1.0.0 (Selected)
XL Fortran Runtime Messages - U.S. English

xlfrte.aix51 9.1.0.0 (Requisite)
XL Fortran Runtime Environment AIX 5.1 Libraries

As is clear from the above commands there is no binary generated in the /usr/bin. Also /usr/lpp/xlf has only lib directory having many files with .a extension. Also some library files are included in the /usr/lib which are as follows:

bash-3.00# ls libxlf*
libxlf.a libxlfpad_r.a libxlfpmt8.a
libxlf90.a libxlfpad_t.a libxlfpmt8_r.a
libxlf90_r.a libxlfpmt4.a libxlfpmt8_t.a
libxlf90_t.a libxlfpmt4_r.a libxlfpthrds_compat.a
libxlfpad.a libxlfpmt4_t.a libxlfutil.a

also /usr/lib/objrepos contains the object files...


With whatever information I could gather by now, I guess I am now supposed to link the library files using ld which will then generate the executable in the /usr/bin like xlf90, xlf95, f77 etc...

Kindly help me and guide me as to what should I do in order to make this fortran compiler work as this is the first dependency for the software in which I am interested?
Also the documentation states that bos.adt.libm is also required for the compilation of xlfrte 9.1 but the system doesnt have this rpm as well (i have checked it using lslpp -l bos.adt.libm) but since the compilation doesnt give the prereq error while installing xlf from the CD using smit and otherwise also so i really do not know if this is the real cause of the problem.

Eagerly waiting for the AIXperts views,
Regards,
