It is. Package ships *.la file that depends on another *.la file which no package ships that the former one depends on.

According to Pierre's test, it's mpc issue, not gcc. mpc tries to use host's libmpfr.la (for a static library it shouldn't matter if it uses host or bundled one imho), but it fails to do so because host's libmpfr.la tries to use host's libgmp.la which is not installed by any package that mpfr (should) depend(s) on. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
