    Hi,

    libmpdec.pc contains a hard-coded path:

    $ cat /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/libmpdec.pc
    prefix=/usr
    exec_prefix=${prefix}
    libdir=${exec_prefix}/lib <=== here
    includedir=${prefix}/include
    [cut]


    This is fixed in mpdecimal-4.0.1, so it would be nice to upgrade.

    Version 4.0.1 only fixes build issues; the binaries are bit identical, so
    the upgrade should be very low risk.
