Comment(by leif):
I have a new p3, but now I'm having the "usual" trouble with PPL (in Sage
4.7.1.rc0).
I.e., installing MPIR works, but after the installation GCC is broken
inside Sage, because it tries to use Sage's PPL which still refers to the
old `libgmpxx.so.3` which got deleted upon installation. (Others are
having trouble with unresolved symbols not provided by Sage's PPL.)
It was IMHO a very bad idea to include PPL into Sage using the same name
for the shared library, apparently without taking any care of these
issues. (GMP / MPIR, MPFR and the -- currently optional IIRC -- MPC, all
used by more recent versions of GCC, are in principle likely dangerous.)
Fortunately^TM^ I can just change my `CC` setting to cure the
installation, not deleting or copying any libraries or creating symbolic
links...
(Apropos, I by incident saw that GAP's `spkg-install` is '''unsetting
`CC`''' because not doing so is said to "break the install". That's very
very odd as well.)
I'll update the MPIR spkg again to not delete its old shared libraries as
a quick fix.
