libmath-mpfr-perl fails to build due to a test failure when built against libmpfr-dev >= 3.1.2: Got: 10111101111110100101110101101111011111101001011111011011110110110010010111110110111101111110100100110101 Expected: 10111101111110100101110101101111011111101001011101011011110110110010010111010110111101111110100100110101 t/test4.t ................. Failed 1/49 subtests This looks rather like this entry from the upstream changelog for 3.18 (https://metacpan.org/release/Math-MPFR): Depending upon the rounding mode values, the mpfr library may incorrectly return false for mpfr_fits_u*_p(x) for -1.0 < x < 0.0 or for -0.5 < x <0.0. (This should be fixed in versions of mpfr later than 3.1.2.) Have the Rmpfr_fits_u*_p() functions return correct result irrespective of the version of mpfr being used - and have the Math:MPFR test suite test for this. Even if I'm wrong about the exact changelog entry, though, 3.18 builds cleanly, so it's probably best to upgrade.
