well I installed gmp the way it instructed and then I did a search for mpfr on the same website and installed it as well, but couldn't find gibc or mpc. I was going to do a search for the missing files but figured I would run version-check first to ensure I wasn't just spinning my wheels. It appears the two files were not installed correctly enough for LInux from Scratch. ~$ bash version-check.sh ---truncate--- version-check.sh: line 32: glibc: command not found g++ compilation OK libgmp.la: found libmpfr.la: found libmpc.la: not found :-)~MIKE~(-: On Tue, Jul 22, 2014 at 11:25 AM, Stephen Partington wrote: > this is what it is after: > > GNU Multiple Precision Arithmetic Library > The GNU Multiple Precision Arithmetic Library is a free library for > arbitrary-precision arithmetic, operating on signed integers, rational > numbers, and floating point numbers. > http://petio.org/tools/gmp.html has some nice refrence material as well. > > *Snip* > -- > A mouse trap, placed on top of your alarm clock, will prevent you from > rolling over and going back to sleep after you hit the snooze button. > > Stephen > > > --------------------------------------------------- > PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.phxlinux.org > To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: > http://lists.phxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss >
