You can install libmlpack-dev for Ubuntu 14.04 from the PPA at https://launchpad.net/~titas-chanda/+archive/ubuntu/armadillo. In case it is not obvious that the PPA does indeed contain the libmlpack-dev package, see https://launchpad.net/~titas-chanda/+archive/ubuntu/armadillo/+sourcepub/6312138/+listing-archive-extra.

To install libmlpack-dev using this PPA, do:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:titas-chanda/armadillo
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libmlpack-dev

  • Hey, I have installed through the ppa, but I am not able to find the libmlpack.so file in usr/lib or usr/local/lib

  • @user2761431 Hmm, that is surprising. I didn't try to build mlpack from source myself, so I can't debug on my end. Maybe ask a new question if you still can't figure it out?

    @user2761431 It might be in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu.
