Actual results: $ ls -l /usr/lib/libgmpxx.so give -> /usr/lib/gmpxx.so.3 which is not a existing file or link Expected results: At least point to /usr/lib/libgmpxx.so.3 or 3.1.4 Additional info: see patch file for a line commented out from spec file.
Created attachment 96233 [details] patch remove a offending line creating a bad symlink for libgmpxx.so
Patch looks correct. rpm -q --whatrequires gmpxx.so.3 --dbpath /usr/lib/rpmdb/i386-redhat-linux/redhat/ indicates gmpxx.so.3 is not used by anyone. Additionally, the package doesn't build on FC1 due to its usage of LIBTOOL=/usr/bin/libtool; it sets CXX to i386-redhat-linux-c++, but /usr/bin/libtool knows only "c++".
Fixed the broken link, the rpm seems to rebuild fine for me. greetings and thanks for the bug-report, Florian La Roche
