Each tarball is signed by Vincent Lefèvre. This can be verified using
the GPG key ID 5831D11A0D4DB02A; this key can be retrieved with:

  gpg --recv-keys 5831D11A0D4DB02A

or by downloading it from <https://www.vinc17.net/pgp.html>.
The key fingerprint is:

  A534 BE3F 83E2 41D9 1828  0AEB 5831 D11A 0D4D B02A

The signatures can be verified with: gpg --verify <file.asc>
You should check that the key fingerprint matches.

Changes from version 4.1.0 to version 4.1.1:
- Bug fixes (see <https://www.mpfr.org/mpfr-4.1.0/#fixed> and/or the
  ChangeLog file), in particular for macros implementing functions.
- Improved manual formatting, by using a recent texinfo.tex file.

Please send success and failure reports with "./config.guess" output
to <mpfr@inria.fr>.

If no problems are found, GNU MPFR 4.1.1 should be released
around 2022-10-15.

Note: InriaForge closed last year, so some URLs on the MPFR website
(those at gforge.inria.fr) no longer work. I have converted the links
to commits, as those at <https://www.mpfr.org/mpfr-4.1.0/#fixed>.
I'll try to do additional changes in the next few days.
