Bug#717850: No static library and no FORTRAN function are provided

[Amorosi, Andrea (Selex ES, Italy)]

Package: libcgns3.1
Version: 3.1.3.4-1

I've tried to use the library libcgns (3.1.3.4-1) provided by Ubuntu 13.04 to compile a third party program which require a static library with FORTRAN functions.
I've discovered that the library is delivered only in the dynamic .so format and that the FORTRAN option was disabled at compile time (nm -D do not show any fortran function i.e. cg_open_f).
Would you please recompile it with FORTRAN enabled (and maybe also mpi) and deliver also the .a format?
Actually I've recompiled it from sources, but I would prefer to use the Ubuntu shipped library.
This is a forward of Ubuntu bug:
