that's what I wanted to know..... thanks! Unfortunately libgmp.la (the full
name of the needed file) tuned up the package
lib32gmp-dev
But apt-get responded that it was unable to locate the package. The search
for
libmpfr.la
said that search gave no results. The search for
libmpc.la
also says no results. Finally, glibc gives me three returns which are not
just glibc. They are:
/usr/share/doc/libcoro-perl/README.linux-glibc libcoro-perl
<
https://packages.debian.org/wheezy/libcoro-perl>
/usr/share/doc/ncc/hacking.GLIBC ncc
<
https://packages.debian.org/wheezy/ncc>
/usr/share/gnulib/tests/test-stpncpy.out.glibc gnulib
<
https://packages.debian.org/wheezy/gnulib>
