Hello :) Finally I have succeeded to compile getdp-1.0.1 .
As Goshwin suggested (thanks!), I looked at the config.log file and at the end I installed g77 fortran compiler (3.4.4-5) too. Than the ./configure only complained about not being able to find gsl (gnu scientific library). Now that was really weird, since I have libgsl0 (1.6-2) installed on my system. This package places these files in /usr/lib: ls -la /usr/lib/libgsl* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 2005-04-27 13:36 /usr/lib/libgslcblas.so.0 -> libgslcblas.so.0.0.0 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 193288 2005-04-11 01:17 /usr/lib/libgslcblas.so.0.0.0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 2005-04-27 13:36 /usr/lib/libgsl.so.0 -> libgsl.so.0.7.0 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1738768 2005-04-11 01:17 /usr/lib/libgsl.so.0.7.0 But the getdp ./configure still complained about not being able to find it even if I have tried with ./configure --with-gsl-prefix=/usr/lib/ Anyway, I have downloaded the gsl library (same version, gsl-1.6) from http://sources.redhat.com/gsl/ compiled that one and installed it in certain tmp folder. Than I pointed getdp to it with ./configure --with-gsl-prefix=/certain/tmp and everything went on smoothly. That is, now I have the getdp binary working with libraries placed in strange place. Well, I can do my work like this, but still it is not really clear why: 1. the same library (eg. the same version) is not working in the normal debian (read "default") setup? 2. why is gmsh packed for debian and getdp is not? These two make a nice pair :) I understand that these are a bit philosophical questions after all, but I think it might be usefull for someone, who is going to use the same software... And of course, I would be happy and appreciate if anyone could correct me and show a simpler/more elegant way :) Best regards Michal -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
