[HEADS UP] Fedora 32 MPFR 4 rebuilds in a side tag

An update of mpfr from version 3.1.6 to version 4.0.2 is about to begin in Rawhide in a side tag: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/mpfr-4.0.2 If you see a "Rebuild for mpfr 4" commit in your package repo, then please coordinate with me before building your package in Rawhid

I second this notion. As I recall, the only thing in the way of the MPFR 4 update was a circular dependency on the libmpc package I maintain, and allowing the userbase to catch up to the API change. It's been a while now, and it would be nice to get this change rolling. -- James Paul Turner

something comes up with these last few, I think we need the MPFR 3 and MPC-linked-with-MPFR-3 compatibility packages only to get gcc switched over, then we can discard them and have an entirely MPFR 4 distribution. In fact, I know that one of the remaining 6, sagemath, won't be a problem. Upstream advertises

gcc works with the new packages, and packages that use mpfr can be upgraded to mpfr4 at their leisure (but will FTBFS if they require mpfr 3, because of the altered header file and library names). Packages that use libmpc, however, are broken because libmpc is now linked with mpfr 4. Those packa

Is anything happening with introducing MPFR 4 into Fedora? I found these: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/mpfr-4.0.0 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1537252 but they indicate that efforts to update have come to a halt. I ask because I have had to patch 2 of my packages
