If you are so interested in using g77 rather than gfortran, it should be
easy enough to grab gcc-3.4.x sources and build g77. One would wonder
why you dislike gfortran so much.
I don't think he dislikes gfortran so much, he just needs _that_
specific version of the package to install octave, I guess.
That would be a SuSE packaging problem, so I'm CC:'ing matz.
