Sayed asked about a Fortran compiler for DragonflyBSD.

I have three such installed:

	% pkg provides gfortran9
	Name    : gcc9-9.5.0_1
	Comment : GNU Compiler Collection 9
	Repo    : Avalon
	Filename: usr/local/man/man1/gfortran9.1.gz
		  usr/local/bin/x86_64-portbld-dragonfly6.4-gfortran9
		  usr/local/bin/gfortran9

	% pkg provides gfortran11
	Name    : gcc11-devel-11.4.1.s20231228
	Comment : GNU Compiler Collection 11
	Repo    : Avalon
	Filename: usr/local/man/man1/gfortran11.1.gz
		  usr/local/bin/x86_64-portbld-dragonfly6.4-gfortran11
		  usr/local/bin/gfortran11

	Name    : gcc11-11.4.0
	Comment : GNU Compiler Collection 11
	Repo    : Avalon
	Filename: usr/local/man/man1/gfortran11.1.gz
		  usr/local/bin/x86_64-portbld-dragonfly6.4-gfortran11
		  usr/local/bin/gfortran11

	% pkg provides gfortran12
	Name    : gcc12-devel-12.3.1.s20231229_1
	Comment : GNU Compiler Collection 12
	Repo    : Avalon
	Filename: usr/local/man/man1/gfortran12.1.gz
		  usr/local/bin/x86_64-portbld-dragonfly6.4-gfortran12
		  usr/local/bin/gfortran12

	Name    : gcc12-12.2.0_7
	Comment : GNU Compiler Collection 12
	Repo    : Avalon
	Filename: usr/local/man/man1/gfortran12.1.gz
		  usr/local/bin/x86_64-portbld-dragonfly6.4-gfortran12
		  usr/local/bin/gfortran12

There should be gfortran compilers also in the gcc8, gcc10, gcc13, and
gcc14 packages.

On DragonflyBSD and FreeBSD, one of the first things that I do during
system installation is install the reverse mapping database that
relates files to their containing packages:

	# pkg install pkg-provides

	[edit /usr/local/etc/pkg.conf according to instructions of the
	last command]

	# pkg plugins

	# pkg provides -u

Once the pkg-provides package is installed, its database is kept
automatically up-to-date.
