  ^^^^
This error comes from the build itself and tells you that gfortran is 
not
present in the build environment. Although I don't know why the error
happens only in the install phase, you probably need to add gfortran in
the list of native-inputs (native-inputs because gfortran is a compiler
and is (I think) not required at runtime).
