Hi all,

Having trouble updating the gcc4 (4.0.1-2) package, 10.4-transitional.
Is gcc4 missing a BuildDepends on libmpfr-dev?  Because having
only gmp installed, configure gives me:

--------- sniplet ------------
checking for correct version of gmp.h... yes
checking for MPFR... no
configure: error: GMP with MPFR support is required to build f95
--------- end sniplet --------


gmp should be enough - it includes mpfr.h. If you run 'dpkg --listfiles gmp' you should see a /sw/include/mpfr.h in there. If you don't, try rebuilding and/or reinstalling gmp.

I mistakenly thought it was already installed with gmp, but that wasn't
enough.  Upon attempting to install libmpfr-dev, I encountered errors in
its installation:

--------- sniplet ------------
<build goes smoothly...>

Yes, the libmpfr-dev package clashes with gmp (maintainer cc'ed).
