Installing GMP in directory other than usr/local

[Zhang, John Ruoyu (John)]

Hi,

I have a general question regarding installing GMP in a directory other than usr/local. After running ./configure --prefix=/somefolder and the other commands, gcc <source.c> -lgmp would not work. I hope I haven't missed something trivial in the manual.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

John Zhang
