You need to ensure that it can.  If you have built MPFR yourself, I
strongly recommend that you discard what you built and rebuild it
using --disable-shared.  Otherwise, you need to ensure that the
dynamic linker can find libmpfr.so one way or another; one simple way
would be to set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable to point to
the right library.  Or you may simply need to run ldconfig.

Yes.
