Description Jochen Schmitt 2005-08-21 19:08:56 UTC 
Becouse I plan the inclussion of abakus to Fedora Extras I have create
a own rpm file of mpfr-2.1.2. Unfortunately, gmp contains an ancient version
of mpfr, which coused a comflict, when I try to install the create mpfr rpm.

The version of mpfr included in gpm is useless for me, becouse abakus requires a
more recent version of mpfr.

Suggested Solution:
Set --disable-mpfr in the SPEC file of gmp.

Best Regards:

Jochen Schmitt
Comment 1 Thomas Woerner 2005-11-11 16:26:29 UTC 
Where exactly is the conflict?
Comment 2 Marcin Garski 2006-06-01 21:01:20 UTC 
This issue will somehow be resolved when you update in future package from 4.1.4
version to currently 4.2.1. When we look into the NEWS file, we can read:

Changes between GMP version 4.1.4 and 4.2
* mpfr is gone, and will from now on be released only separately. Please see
www.mpfr.org.

When you do it, they won't be conflict betwen gmp and abakus.
Comment 3 Laurent Rineau 2006-08-07 14:59:48 UTC 
I have done myself a package for GMP. The conflicts are:

        file /usr/include/mpf2mpfr.h from install of mpfr-devel-2.2.0-2.fc5 
conflicts with file from package gmp-devel-4.1.4-6
        file /usr/include/mpfr.h from install of mpfr-devel-2.2.0-2.fc5 
conflicts with file from package gmp-devel-4.1.4-6
        file /usr/share/info/mpfr.info.gz from install of 
mpfr-devel-2.2.0-2.fc5 conflicts with file from package gmp-devel-4.1.4-6
        file /usr/include/mpf2mpfr.h from install of mpfr-devel-2.2.0-2.fc5 
conflicts with file from package gmp-devel-4.1.4-6.2.1
        file /usr/include/mpfr.h from install of mpfr-devel-2.2.0-2.fc5 
conflicts with file from package gmp-devel-4.1.4-6.2.1
        file /usr/share/info/mpfr.info.gz from install of 
mpfr-devel-2.2.0-2.fc5 conflicts with file from package gmp-devel-4.1.4-6.2.1
Comment 4 Laurent Rineau 2006-08-07 15:02:00 UTC 
Sorry for having changed the status to ASSIGNED. I will revert that. Sorry for 
the two extras messages.
Comment 5 Laurent Rineau 2006-08-07 15:16:37 UTC 
It would be nice that this bug is fixed soon. I would like to package 
CGAL_python, but it requires shared libraries of mpfr (to dlopen stuffs), that 
cannot be packaged separately because of the current bug.
Comment 6 FX 2006-10-20 09:26:57 UTC 
As I said in bug 199550: GCC-4.3 will require MPFR >= 2.2.0, so this will have
to get fixed.
Comment 7 Laurent Rineau 2006-12-01 15:39:09 UTC 
Actually, the gmp package ships mpfr-2.2.0+patches, since 4.1.4-8.

See related bugs: bug #211762 and bug #218041.

Jochen, does the current version of gmp, in FC-6 and FC-devel fits your needs?
Comment 8 Jochen Schmitt 2006-12-03 19:12:45 UTC 
Yes
Comment 9 Laurent Rineau 2006-12-04 12:44:00 UTC 
Well, this bug is actually a dup of bug #211762, where the same subjects are 
discussed:
  - upgrade of mpfr shipped in gmp,
  - or split of mpfr and gmp.
