well, I didn't have a problem getting these files with a standard installation of debian; it was only after I tried with a net install of debia. So right now I'm downloading a current dvd iso of debian and after the install I'll see if that helps.

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

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.
