[U-Boot] [Buildman] libmpfr.so.4 error when running buildman in Ubuntu 18.04

[Breno Matheus Lima]

Hi All,

I'm trying to run buildman in Ubuntu 18.04 and I met the following
build issue in most of the archs:

+/home/breno/.buildman-toolchains/gcc-7.3.0-nolibc/powerpc-linux/bin/../libexec/gcc/powerpc-linux/7.3.0/cc1:
error while loading shared libraries: libmpfr.so.4: cannot open shared
object file: No such file or directory
+make[2]: *** [u-boot.cfg] Error 1
+make[1]: *** No rule to make target 'include/config/auto.conf',
needed by 'include/config/uboot.release'.  Stop.
+make: *** [sub-make] Error 2

According to link [1] libmpfr4 has been dropped in Ubuntu 18.04 It was
replaced by the package libmpfr6, seems that the toolchains being used
by buildman requires libmpfr4 package.

Has anyone seen similar issue?

I could solve this issue after following link [2] and creating a
symbolical link for libmpfr.so.4 as below:

$ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libmpfr.so.6
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libmpfr.so.4

Just wondering if someone found a better workaround for this issue :)

Thanks,
Breno Lima

A better workaround for this is to grab the libmpfr4 deb from Ubuntu
16.04 and install that.  I suppose we might need to investigate moving
to the Bootlin created toolchains, even if we can't also move to a newer
toolchain version at the same time (for various reasons documented in
other threads, we need gcc 8.3 or 9.x for all architectures to be
happy).

That worked, thanks!

Just downloaded from link below and I'm not seeing this error anymore:
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/bionic/amd64/libmpfr4/3.1.6-1
