Below is a forward of a problem(?) that I have noticed with GMP-4.0.

  I installed it into prefix /usr/local (/usr/local/lib is in my ld.so.conf
  file) and (after a make install and ldconfig):

  guacamole:~/gmp/gmp-4.0# ldconfig -v | grep gmp
          libgmp.so.3 => libgmp.so.3.2.0

  Before installing this version, doing the above command returned:
        libgmp.so.3 => libgmp.so.3.1.1

  I'm confused.

Yes, and I can only partially unconfuse you.

It is a mistake to assume that shared library name = release
denotation.  It is not.

Perhaps Kevin can give a better answer.  (Asking questions
to address@hidden might be a better idea in general.)
