oops.... I was inspecting version-check.sh script and notice that in line 33 what it said was 'glibc' all of the other checked programs were ' --version |head -n1' so I made it like that and the output said I did not have that program either. So I googled for it and as with libgmp.la libmpfr.la libmpc.la I couldn't find anything. I found pages that said something like 'how to install a current version ' but one of the requirements was an old version of the program. Here is an idea.... I could scp the program from a computer with the programs. . . . unfortunately they aren't there. :-)~MIKE~(-: On Mon, Jul 21, 2014 at 9:02 PM, Michael Havens wrote: > it found mpc. but, unfortunately, version-check.sh doesn't say it > installed libmpc.la . > > :-)~MIKE~(-: > > > On Mon, Jul 21, 2014 at 8:37 PM, Michael Havens wrote: > >> I ran the version-check script and some packages were installed and some >> not.
