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:
