About a week ago, I wrote Lots of other people chimed in with pointers to the development package you needed, but no one mentioned a handy tool on the Debian Web site for determining the answer to such questions. If you're trying to compile something and run across a missing file, you can use the search form at the *bottom* of <http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages> to look for them -- be sure to set the distribution field to frozen (if you want potato) or unstable (if you want the latest and greatest) -- once potato is actually released, stable would work fine. The search script will return a list of packages that contain the file you searched for; you can then download the relevant package with APT. (You can search for just the file name, which might return several packages, or for the whole path (if you know it), which should only return one or two.) I've actually copied the source code for both the search forms on that page, as well as the ones for the bug tracking system, to a local page on my system so I have a quick way of accessing various search engines. I highly recommend doing so to anyone who might be doing a fair amount of searching. That search form should give you the answers you're looking for, but in the interest of niceness: CE> libIV.so In devel/ivtools-dev. libIV.so.0.7.9 is in devel/ivtools-interviews. CE> libf2c.so.0 No such thing, but libf2c.so.2 and libf2c.so.2.1 are in the devel/f2c package.
