From 6167a55b227db61eb52c2a4f96f44fc559a8b1d0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Charles Haithcock Date: Fri, 18 Jul 2025 16:14:25 -0600 Subject: [PATCH 2/5] doc: Update requirements for building on Fedora Attempting to build on Fedora fails with the following error; $ make TARGET: RISCV64 CRASH: 9.0.0++ GDB: 16.2 Saving 'gdb-16.2.tar.gz' [...] checking for the correct version of gmp.h... no configure: error: Building GDB requires GMP 4.2+, and MPFR 3.1.0+. Try the --with-gmp and/or --with-mpfr options to specify their locations. If you obtained GMP and/or MPFR from a vendor distribution package, make sure that you have installed both the libraries and the header files. They may be located in separate packages. make[2]: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop. crash build failed make[1]: *** [Makefile:316: gdb_merge] Error 1 make: *** [Makefile:307: all] Error 2 Installing gmp-devel and mpfr-devel fixed this, so this patch updates the requirements for building on Fedora.
