Remove .la files for gmp and mpfr none

Description Ting-Wei Lan 2015-08-01 17:26:20 UTC 
Both gmp and mpfr ports install .la files. Can we remove them to prevent odd build problems?

libgmp.la and libmpfr.la cause gnome-calculator to fail to build in jhbuild because wrong version of libpangoft2-1.0.so.0 is found during linking:
/home/lantw44/gnome/devinstall/lib/libgtk-3.so: undefined reference to `pango_fc_font_map_config_changed'
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

Removing libgmp.la and libmpfr.la fixes the problem.
Comment 1 Ting-Wei Lan 2015-08-05 09:49:16 UTC 
A simple build test done by running 'poudriere bulk' on all ports having math/gmp or math/mpfr dependencies shows no build failure, so removing libgmp.la and libmpfr.la seems to be safe.

Comment 3 Ting-Wei Lan 2015-11-13 16:15:33 UTC 
This problem still doesn't get fixed and we still see build failure caused by .la files. Does anyone have time to review the patch?
