I removed my old f2py and installed  f2py 2.13.175-1212. After 
f2py -c initgraphics.f  -m test -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lm -lg2 -lX11 -lgd
I still get

>>> import test
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
ImportError: ./test.so: undefined symbol: g2_open_x11_
 
When I try ldd test.so I see that the libraries are all there. I also try
to link just libg2.so but I still get the same message. Please help...
