Hi,
I tried the GCC compiler and got nothing but errors:

root@porteus:~# gcc t.c
/usr/libexec/gcc/x86_64-slackware-linux/4.5.1/cc1: error while loading shared libraries: libmpfr.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
root@porteus:~# gcc t.c -o t
/usr/libexec/gcc/x86_64-slackware-linux/4.5.1/cc1: error while loading shared libraries: libmpfr.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007fa8d7914000)

So the compiler is missing a library, or have I done anything wrong?

checked v09 and 1.0_rc2 - both version has mpfr package (otherwise i wouldn't be able to compile fglrx, vbox and stuff which is shipped with every release)
did you try to locate missing lib in /usr/lib64? "always fresh" mode? also you can try to run 'ldconfig' to fix missing symlinks.

I'm very sorry - I was running some apparently "old" version ; uname -a said something about #37-7 in the kernal ...

I formatted the HD, got 1.0_rc2 iso, installed it, copied all modules and all rootcopy stuff to it, rebooted and the compiler now works like a charm.
