Hi James, I think it is unfortunate that you reassigned this bug to gcc-7. That will not solve the mpfr4 build on the buildds. There are two ways to solve this problem: 1) - reassign this bug back to mpfr4, adding the libfr6.symbols.kfreebsd-amd64 in next version 4.0.1-2. - clone this bug to gcc-7, adding a patch to dfp.m4 so it can be integrated in next release of gcc-7: 7.3.0-18? 2) (not preferred) - Build an NMUed version of mpfr4, 4.0.1-1.1, and install it at debian-ports. For GNU/Hurd the entry in sources.list is deb http://ftp.ports.debian.org/debian-ports unreleased main What about creating http://ftp.ports.debian.org/debian-ports/pool-kfreebsd-{amd64,i386} and populate the mpfr4 packages there at pool-kfreebsd-amd64/m/. Additionally the buildds need to use these packages. Unfortunately I don't know how to do that. Then when gcc-7-7.3.0-18 is released, an updated version of mpfr4 is hopefully available (if not, what to do, how to get back to using the old version?)
