Dear Mr. Taube,

Thank you very much for your fast response. The problem was indeed that Grace.make didn't find the "fomus.a" file (although i had copies everywhere 😌).
The reason is that I messed too much with the premake file: I had added the line "links({"/usr/lib/libfomus.a"})", and also uncommented the "linkoptions({"-v"})",
which was blocking gcc to find it... apologies for that. After removing those it compiled everything and now the fomus frontend works perfectly.
Thanks for your help, and for your wonderful work!
Andres
