Fortran is optional dependency for some packages (NumPy), and obligatory for others (SciPy, etc).

That's the problem I ran into as well, when trying to package R-base. I'd love to see SciPy too, so it's a bit of a bummer. I don't know much about Fortran, though. Is it solvable by simply packaging gcc-fortran or does gcc need to be rebuilt altogether?
