[Gsll-devel] DEFCVAR error

[Liam Healy]

Here's what I have under /usr/lib,

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 3917574 2008-01-28 07:58 /usr/lib/libgsl.a
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  420802 2008-01-28 07:58 /usr/lib/libgslcblas.a

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1966928 2008-01-28 07:58 /usr/lib/libgsl.so.0.10.0

and packages installed (Debian unstable)
ii  gsl-bin                        1.10-4                         GNU
Scientific Library (GSL) -- binary package
ii  gsl-ref-html                   1.10-1                         GNU
Scientific Library (GSL) Reference Manual in html
ii  libgsl0                        1.9-3                          GNU
Scientific Library (GSL) -- library package
ii  libgsl0-dev                    1.10-4                         GNU
Scientific Library (GSL) -- development package
ii  libgsl0ldbl                    1.10-4                         GNU
Scientific Library (GSL) -- library package

not all of which are necessary of course.  I have found in general
with Debian libraries that they often fail to link to the most general
"so" file, so that e.g. there will be a libxyz.so.0.n and a
libxyz.so.0 that's a link to that, but then I will need to make a link
libxyz.so.  I can't remember if that happened with GSL or not, but
check for that if it says the library is missing but you think you've
installed it.
