Hi, 

Due to root access permissions I have to resort to manually installing postgres from source code available under the ftp site. When I execute ./configure --prefix="dir/path"- my config log shows the following error: 

gcc version 4.9.0 (GCC) 
configure:3817: $? = 0 
configure:3806: gcc -V >&5 
gcc: error: unrecognized command line option '-V' 
gcc: fatal error: no input files 
compilation terminated. 
configure:3817: $? = 1 
configure:3806: gcc -qversion >&5 
gcc: error: unrecognized command line option '-qversion' 
gcc: fatal error: no input files 
compilation terminated. 
configure:3817: $? = 1 
configure:3837: checking whether the C compiler works 
configure:3859: gcc    conftest.c  >&5 
/../software/free/Linux/redhat_6_x86_64/pkgs/gcc_4.9.0/libexec/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.9.0/cc1: error while loading shared libraries: libmpfr.so.4: cannot     open shared object file: No such file or directory 

I have seen an earlier post with gcc errors, however I couldn't figure out what the actual problem here is: is it that libmpfr.so.4 is not found? or gcc needs to be installed fresh?
