TL;DR: your mpmath is too old for your sympy. sympy expects make_mpc, which only newer mpmath provides. Upgrade mpmath.

## The error
```text
ImportError: cannot import name 'make_mpc' from 'mpmath'
```

## Fix it
1. Upgrade mpmath:
   ```
   pip install -U mpmath
   ```
   Expected: installs an mpmath new enough to provide make_mpc.
2. Verify:
   ```
   python -c "from mpmath import make_mpc; import sympy; print('ok')"
   ```
   Expected: prints ok.

## When this applies
Use this when `import sympy` raises the make_mpc error, typical when mpmath was pinned or vendored separately from sympy.

## When it does not apply
If mpmath is already current and the error persists, the mpmath install is corrupt; reinstall it. If the error names a different mpmath symbol, check the versions pair-wise.

## Compatibility
sympy releases that require a newer mpmath than what is installed; make_mpc exists in mpmath 1.3+.

## Root cause
sympy tracks mpmath's API and uses make_mpc for complex interval constructors. Partial packaging (vendoring one without the other) or a stale mpmath pin leaves sympy calling a name its mpmath never had.

## Edge cases
Always upgrade sympy and mpmath as a pair; pip install -U sympy pulls the right mpmath automatically. In frozen/packaged apps, update both in the package manifest.
