 Hi,
 I've spent about half an hour of fruitless searching to try and get round
 this issue.  It seems that there is no libgmp.so.3 on Centos 7 so I can't
 get GHC installed via any of the methods suggested.  I even tried building
 gmp from source but this only gave me a static library for libgmp
 (libgmp.la), so am pretty frustrated really.  Any ideas on how to get past
 this.
