How To Install libpacklib1-gfortran on Debian 9
Introduction

on Debian 9.
What is libpacklib1-gfortran
libpacklib1-gfortran is:
CERNLIB is a suite of data analysis tools and libraries created for use in physics experiments, but also with applications to other fields such as the biological sciences.
The packlib library includes a great deal of CERNLIB core functionality. Best-known are probably the MINUIT function minimization routines, the HBOOK histogramming routines, and KUIP (Kit for a User Interface Package). Other subsystems include CSPACK, a set of client-server routines; FFREAD, a format-free input processing system for FORTRAN; and ZEBRA, a data structure management package.
This package also includes kuesvr, the KUIP edit server program that permits calling an editor asynchronously from within a KUIP-based program.
Please note that the graphical functionality of KUIP has been split out into the separate libpacklib-lesstif1-gfortran package so that this package need not depend upon the X libraries. In order to compile and link programs against libpacklib, you must also install the libpacklib1-dev (and maybe also the libpacklib-lesstif1-dev) package(s).
