Why? I am not trying to build or edit mpfr. The error message in config.log says that it was looking for the symbol mpfr_snprintf in -lmpfr . It did not even find -lmpfr . Why not?
Because /usr/lib64/libmpfr.so is in the mpfr-devel package, not the mpfr package. This is not unique to mpfr. All library packages in Fedora do this. See:
