Problems when configuring Guile

Problems when configuring Guile

[M]

Hello,

I am trying to install Guile. However, I get the following error message at
the ./configure stage:

checking for libgmp... no
configure: error: GNU MP 4.1 or greater not found, see README

I have installed gmp 6.1.1 (with gmp.h present in the folder) and use the
following command:

./configure --prefix=/home/user/apps/guile-2.0.13
--with-libgmp-prefix=/home/user/apps/gmp-6.1.1/
CPPFLAGS='-I/home/user/apps/gmp-6.1.1/'
LDFLAGS='-L/home/user/apps/gmp-6.1.1/'

Still it cannot find my gmp library.

Thankful for any help.

You also need to instal the so called -dev packages, depending on your distro. I'm
using debian, as an example, the package to install in this case is libgmp-dev:amd64

Cheers,
