"apt-file search" searches the package lists, not the installed files. If it shows nothing, that means you have probably forgotten to run "apt-file update" recently. It lists the packages containing a given file even if the package is not installed (would be quite useless otherwise). To search the installed files (ie. list which package, if any, a given file on your system came from), you want "dpkg -S". > But next got stuck on -lmfhdf... tried libhdf5-mpich-dev, > but that then un-install the above 'serial'... so do > not think it is that... > > Any idea what to install for this? Once you fix your apt-file it should show you that: $ apt-file search libmfhdf.so libhdf4-0: /usr/lib/libmfhdf.so.0 libhdf4-0: /usr/lib/libmfhdf.so.0.0.0 libhdf4-dev: /usr/lib/libmfhdf.so So, install libhdf4-dev > _AND_ I am sure I may need help on other names that > look quite unfamiliar like - > > -ldf -logdi -lnetcdf -lpq -ldl -lgssapi_krb5 You can use apt-file to find the packages for these as well. - df is included in libhd4-dev that you installed above. - ogdi is in libogdi3.2-dev - netcdf is in libnetcdf-dev - pq is in libpq-dev - dl is in libc6-dev (probably already installed) - gssapi_krb5 is in libkrb5-dev Also note, installing libgdal1-dev would have pulled in most of these automatically. -- Csaba/Jester ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ WhatsUp Gold - Download Free Network Management Software The most intuitive, comprehensive, and cost-effective network management toolset available today.
