problems in installing PGPLOT in UBUNTU
Dear all, Has anyone met a problem when installing PGPLOT in UBUNTU? I fellowed the prescribed recipe in http://cars9.uchicago.edu/~ifeffit/src/INSTALL but always encounter problem when trying to get PGPLOT installed. The message is like this: "= Uh-oh. PGPLOT is missing some important files! = It looks like PGPLOT failed during building or = is only partially installed. = = Please consult the PGPLOT installation instructions = in the subdirectory pgplot/, and the log file: = /home/enyuan/ifeffit-1.2.11d/PGPLOT_install.log = which contains a full list of commands run. = = You may want to repeat these steps by hand or = consult the PGPLOT installations instructions = in install-unix.txt " I'm a newbie to UBUNTU so I would really appreciate it if the answer can consider my ignorance and be as simple as possible :) BTW, the motivation I'm switching to UBUNTU is the video of doctor Bruce lecturing on vimeo.comwhich were done in the environment of Demeter...juicy!! -- Enyuan

For Ubuntu, you don't need to install PGPLOT from the tarball, there is a package of it in Ubuntu already. horae and sixpack are available in Ubuntu also. The only thing that is not (yet) available is demeter but I hope to be able to get it into Ubuntu soon. The latest versions of my packages are always available at http://debian-xray.iit.edu By the way, the errors are because you are mising the development libraries of some packages that PGPLOT needs in order to compile.

Hi Enyuan, I'm sure you read the message that you posted:
= Please consult the PGPLOT installation instructions = in the subdirectory pgplot/, and the log file: = /home/enyuan/ifeffit-1.2.11d/PGPLOT_install.log = which contains a full list of commands run. = = You may want to repeat these steps by hand or = consult the PGPLOT installations instructions = in install-unix.txt
Did you consult this log file as suggested? Do you see any obvious
error messages that you might want to pass along to help us figure out
what didn't work?
