Try a Google search on your error message - lots of people having similar problems with their Linux machine caused by having an incompatible version of libmpr installed. Make sure you didn't install either a third party awk or a third party libgmp on your development environment.

i installed by command apt-get install libgmp3-dev
Then again try compilation and compilation works longer time but still have error:

If you start with the recommended build environment, it will save you much time.

For Asuswrt-Merlin, start with a Linux Mint 13 VM since that's what Merlin uses. I just compiled 380.61 for RT-AC88U and it built just fine.

If you build the Entware-NG repo, start with a Debian Linux VM since that's what's recommended. Don't try to use one development VM for everything.

 

[Piter]

But Linux Mint 13 what edition because available a little...?
https://www.linuxmint.com/release.php?id=18

 

[Fitz Mutch]

I did the Linux Mint 13 "Maya" - KDE (64-bit)

https://www.linuxmint.com/edition.php?id=116

 

[RMerlin]

Ubuntu 16.04 LTS is also compatible - I switched to it a few months ago.

 

[Piter]

On ubuntu i have still error as i describe...

 

[Fitz Mutch]

Just a guess... try this:
sudo apt-get install libltdl-dev

http://www.snbforums.com/threads/help-compiling-latest-merlin-firmware.30531/#post-262046

 

[Piter]

I have installed libltdl-dev in version 2.4.6-0.1

 

[Piter]

Anybody can help me please ?

I've also encountered this problem when trying to recompile the kernel for some extra modules (sound, uvc etc.). You need to replace the existing "libmpfr.so.4" (from the asuswrt-merlin/src-rt-xxx/release/toolchains/.../lib) with the one inside /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu, for Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (or a simlink pointing to it). See: https://github.com/pavel-demin/red-pitaya-notes/issues/426
Merry Christmas!
