Version 2.3.2-1 of mpfr/libmpfr1/libmpfr-devel have been uploaded.

PACKAGE DESCRIPTION
===================

Homepage: http://www.mpfr.org
License : GNU LGPL 2.1 or later

The MPFR library is a C library for multiple-precision floating-point
computations with exact rounding (also called correct rounding). It is
based on the GMP multiple-precision library.  The main goal of MPFR is
to provide a library for multiple-precision floating-point computation
which is both efficient and has a well-defined semantics. It copies the
good ideas from the ANSI/IEEE-754 standard for double-precision
floating-point arithmetic.

CHANGES SINCE LAST RELEASE
==========================

Minor upstream bug fixes.  http://www.mpfr.org/mpfr-current/#changes

Function mpfr_init_gmp_rand (only defined when building MPFR without the 
--with-gmp-build configure option) is no longer defined at all. This 
function was private and not documented, and was used only in the MPFR 
test suite. User code that calls it is regarded as broken and may fail 
as a consequence. Running the old test suite against MPFR 2.3.2 may also 
fail.

INSTALL OR UPGRADE NOTES
========================

Standard install.
