how to fix: /bin/ld: cannot find -lgfortran error: ld returned 1 exit status - gcc

I am trying to compile a Fortran code (package) with gfortran in a Linux server, on which I have no root access.
It has a Makefile and when I run make I get this error
/bin/ld: cannot find -lgfortran
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
but gcc is already installed on cluster.
gcc -v

I have also tried to update $PATH but it did not change anything.

warnings while trying to compile old linux kernel with gcc 12.1.0

I am currently hunting a bug using git bisect in linux staging-testing tree.
Some commits are giving following errors after I try to build them:
subcmd-util.h:58:31: error: pointer may be used after ‘realloc’ [-Werror=use-after-free]
58 | ret = realloc(ptr, 1);
check.c:2867:58: error: ‘%d’ directive output may be truncated writing between 1 and 10 bytes into a region of size 9 [-Werror=format-truncation=]
2867 | snprintf(pvname, sizeof(pvname), "pv_ops[%d]", idx);
I tried adding -Wno-error=use-after-free to KBUILD_FLAGS in main Makefile, tried adding
KBUILD_CFLAGS += $(call cc-disable-warning, use-after-free)
I even tried removing -Werror from CFLAGS in Makefile in folder where problematic files are located, but nothing worked.

One of the commits that gives following warnings: 2ab9c9675fe892e7fe9fa8c0a6125e2b40d2889d.
To compile older version of kernel I needed older compiler ("Linux kernel sources are in general not forward-compatible with new compilers"). In my case the kernel version was 5.16.0 and I could compile it with gcc 11. If you have gcc 11 specific warnings then try gcc 10 and so on.
Except CC flags, I also needed set to HOSTCC flags to use gcc-11 compiler:
make HOSTCC=gcc-11 CC=gcc-11

Compile libgcc.a and libstd++.a for 32 bits

Good afternoon,
If I'm here today is because I encounter some compilation problems.
For a project, I would like to compile gcc in order to have libgcc.a and libstd++.a for 32 bits.
Unfortunatly I have some problems.
Here are the command lines I used to configure and compile the wanted libraries:
CC="gcc -m32" CXX="g++ -m32" CFLAGS="-O1 -march=i686 -gtoggle" CXXFLAGS="-O1 -march=i686 -gtoggle" ; ../src/gcc/gcc-8.1.0/configure --prefix=/path/compiled/x86/O1/gcc --enable-languages=c,c++ --enable-static i686-linux-gnu
make all-gcc
make install-target-libgcc
When I execute last command line I have those errors:
/usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/libc.so when searching for -lc
/usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/libc.a when searching for -lc
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lc

Thank you for your help !
EDIT: ANSWER HERE
SO for those who wants to know how to compile libgcc and libstdc++ for 32 on a x86_64 machine:
./configure --target=$TARGET --disable-nls --enable-languages=c,c++ --without-headers --prefix=/path/
make all-gcc
make all-target-libgcc
make all-target-libstdc++-v3
make install-gcc
make install-target-libgcc
make install-target-libstdc++-v3
make clean
Then go to the folder containing your new installation, you'll normaly have two folders: lib32 and lib64. Inside lib32, there is the 32 bits version of libgcc and libstdc++ and in lib64, their 64 bits version.
Enjoy !

Do I need to manually compile libasan if I use g++?
Sanitizer runtimes typically come in a separate package. E.g. on Debian you'll need to install libasanN ("N" depends on your GCC version).

If you want to compile netcdf with the PGI (Portland group) compilers, then you should use those tools:

$ rpm -qa | grep mpc

Is there a way to troubleshoot my project's makefile or gcc to determine what is causing the warning and fix it? I do not seem to need the + symbol added to rules when building from OS X via Clang/LLVM. Google searches on the warning text are not returning much information that is apparently useful.
Whenever you run make from inside a makefile you should always use the $(MAKE) variable. Never use the raw, literal command make.
