Is there a way to just build the following code block; 1. | int 2. | main () 3. | { 4. | mpfr_t x; mpfr_init(x) ; mpfr_clear(x); 5. | 6. | ; 7. | return 0; 8. | } and then re-run make? > -- > http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support > FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html > Unsubscribe: See the above information page >
