I recall having this error and being confused by the g-wrap build.
g-wrap builds and installs its own copy of libffi if and only if there
isn't already a libffi installed when the build starts. So this error
can be caused by:
1. Build and install g-wrap-1.9.11. No libffi installed yet, so
g-wrap installs it.
2. Build and install g-wrap-1.9.12. libffi is already installed.
3. Uninstall g-wrap-1.9.11. This uninstalls libffi too.
Could that be what is happening in your case?
