This caught my eye. I noticed that there is a gcc-gfortran compiler,
but missing is the legacy g77 compiler, more noticably, that neither
compiler appears in the cache. This becomes self-evident when one
installs NetBeans, and notices that it cannot seem to locate the fortran
compiler because it does not appear in the /usr/lib/ccache folder.
Why is that?
