I consider this as a RC critical bug in gmp anyway, if it is really the cause of the problem, and as the recompile fixed it I see that as a strong indicator. The mail to the gmp's first maintainer did bounce, though. > The same then goes for obby if it reexports the API/ABI. Oh well, here you are right. I did not consider this. The interface is used in parameters passed to some functions in obby, so yes, it needs to be changed, too. I don't know if more packages are affected. Apart from that the dependent applications also need to be rebuilt then. > Have you checked that a recompiled obby will work with older gmp > packages?

They most probably won't work with older, but I could force a shlibs version dependency locally in obby to require the new version.
