[SOLVED] Precompiled 'libmpfr' for Slackware?

x111 · 07-23-2010, 09:20 AM

I've been building a minimal Slackware system with a small number of packages installed (following this article of ). But now I'm facing a problem with a library call 'libmpfr' when installing the package 'pmount'. I have tried installing libmpfr from source but the installation also REQUIRED libmpfr.

Code:

error while loading shared libraries: libmpfr.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

The only solution I could come up with is to look for a precompiled libmpfr so that I can install it using installpkg. But nowhere could I find it by now.

All ideas or suggestions are strongly welcome. Thanks.

The mpfr package is in the "l" series of Slackware.

Thank you Eric, for the prompt and useful reply. I searched for 'libmpfr' but not 'mpfr', that's why I missed this source

. Now 'pmount' is up and running. Thanks again.
