<p>Apparently, Fedora 40 ships with gcc version 14:</p>
<p><br>

<p>Most of the Fedora 34 steps still applied to Fedora 40, but I had
to make some adjustments in order to get it to work as follows.</p>

The issue might be because the version of Fedora that you are
using does not have the operating system library that it needs
to load ftnunit. Thus, the "error while loading" error.</div>

https://fedoraproject.org</a> , I see that Fedora is now at
version 40. I've not tried XCrySDen 1.6.2 with that version if
that is what you are using.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">With some other
code packages, I have seen some GNU compiler compatibility
issues encountered with newer Linux distributions that release
with gcc/g++ version 13. With Ubuntu 24.04 LTS that comes
with gcc/g++ version 13, though, I was able to fall back as a
workaround (while waiting to see if the code developers would
provide new versions with code changes for working with the
newer compilers) for example by installing a g++ version 10
package using "sudo apt install g++-10". Don't know yet if
there are any issues compiling XCrySDen 1.6.2 with the latest
gcc versions or if Fedora has a similar fall back package that
can be installed like Ubuntu.</p>
