Others should read the install +instructions in gmp.info. Use + + info -f doc/gmp.info + +from the gmp source directory. + +Here are some brief instructions on how to install GMP. First you need to +compile. Since you're impatient, try this + + ./configure + make + make check <= VERY IMPORTANT!! + +If that fails, or you care about the performance of GMP, you need to read the +full instructions in the chapter "Installing GMP" in the manual. + +You should not skip the "make check" part; the risk that the GMP sources are +miscompiled are unfortunately quite high. And if they indeed are, "make check" +is very likely to trigger the compiler-introduced bug. + +Optionally, you can install the library with the following command. This will +be to /usr/local by default, and you'll probably need to be "root" to be able +to write there. + + make install + +To create the printable documentation from the texinfo source, type "make +gmp.dvi" or "make gmp.ps". This requires various "tex" commands. + +If you are new to GMP, it is a good idea you at least read the chapter "GMP +Basics" in the manual. + +Some known build problems are noted in the "Installing GMP" chapter of +the manual. Please report other problems to gmp-bugs@gmplib.org. + +The GMP web site is located here: https://gmplib.org/. + + +---------------- +Local variables: +mode: text +fill-column: 78 +End: |
