Hi All
The current version (5.1.0-2) of mingw-gfortran is useless since it the produced executable cannot open any existing file (see http://sourceforge.net/p/mingw-w64/bugs/487/ ). The problem seems to be solved in version 5.2. I filed a bug (#1268248) some weeks ago , but the fedora-maintainer of this package seems not responsive. However until this issue is solved the package is "useless". How can "speed-up" the upgrade to version 5.2?
I think that is in the mingw-gcc package. Version 5.2 is built for f24 here, http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=675607 You could download and compile the src.rpm on your system, as the binary probably has dependencies that won't allow it to install on your earlier fedora system.
Your best bet for getting it officially for an earlier fedora version is to open a bugzilla against the package mingw-gcc, asking (nicely?) for an update. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/
