Hello,

I tried to install the h5utils into a nonstandard directory because I 
haven't the
root privileges. So I tried to install everything to $HOME/INSTALL and 
the first
steps of the installation guidance works fine but I'm not able to 
install the h5utils.

If I run

./configure prefix=$HOME/INSTALL LDFLAGS=-L$HOME/INSTALL/lib 
CPPFLAGS=-I$HOME/INSTALL/include

in the directory of the unpacked h5utils package after installing thd 
HDF5 I recieved the message

checking size of unsigned long... configure: error: cannot compute 
sizeof (unsigned long)

This is the error message discussed explicitly in the installation 
instructions, but because I haven't the privileges
I couldn't add something in /etc/ld.so.conf before running 
/sbin/ldconfig. Because I haven't any experience with
dynamic linkers I have no idea how I should proceed.

Thanks in advance for any hints
Felix Rueting
