Trying to install pbh5-tools
on my Ubuntu 12.04 virtual machine. I have encountered countless problems trying to get the program to install. I get the error:
In file included from /tmp/easy_install-BEtAkS/h5py-2.5.0/h5py/defs.c:287:0:
/tmp/easy_install-BEtAkS/h5py-2.5.0/h5py/api_compat.h:27:18: fatal error: hdf5.h: No such file or directory
I have tried downloading libhdf5-dev
to solve this, but when I use sudo apt-get libhdf5-dev
, I get this response.
Package libhdf5-dev is a virtual package provided by:
libhdf5-serial-dev 1.8.4-patch1-3ubuntu2
libhdf5-openmpi-dev 1.8.4-patch1-3ubuntu2
libhdf5-mpich-dev 1.8.4-patch1-3ubuntu2
libhdf5-lam-dev 1.8.4-patch1-3ubuntu2
When I try installing the individual packages I get the same response:
E: Unable to locate package 1.8.4-patch1-3ubuntu2
I downloaded the patch, configured it, made it, and installed it, but I still cant get it to work. Don't know what to do really.
sudo apt-get install libhdf5-serial-dev
