[Ecls-list] Ecl-build can't find existing gmp-lib ?

[Oliver Kullmann]

The problem is that the rpath-option for building ecl_min should use the lib
used by ecl_min, that is, gmp --- then ecl_min is built correctly:

ecl-10.4.1/build> /home/kullmann/OKplatform/ExternalSources/Installations/Gcc/4.1.2/bin/gcc -L/home/kullmann/OKplatform/ExternalSources/Installations/Gmp/4.1.2/5.0.1/lib -Wl,-rpath,/home/kullmann/OKplatform/ExternalSources/Installations/Gmp/4.1.2/5.0.1/lib -o ecl_min cinit.o c/all_symbols.o -L./ libeclmin.a -leclgc  -lgmp -ldl  -lm
ecl-10.4.1/build> ./ecl_min
