Description:

When running octave after upgrading this morning, I got

samuel ~ $ /usr/bin/octave
/usr/lib/octave/4.4.0/exec/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/octave-gui: error while loading shared libraries: libgfortran.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Additional info:

There was also a gcc 8 update, maybe the fortran stuff got left out by mistake?
There does not seems to be any libgfortran in https://www.archlinux.org/packages/core/x86_64/gcc-fortran/

Steps to reproduce:

Run anything requiring gfortran, I just realized the software R also has the problem, probably everything else using fortran when built will throw the same error.

samuel ~ $ R
/usr/lib64/R/bin/exec/R: error while loading shared libraries: libgfortran.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
