HDF5

HDF5

Amuse can work with HDF5 versions 1.6.* and 1.8.3. Ubuntu 9.04 comes with HDF5 version 1.6.6. To install it, do:

> sudo apt-get install libhdf5-serial-dev hdf5-tools

I had this same problem. I found that libhdf5-dev created the files

/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libhdf5_hl.so.7
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libhdf5.so.7

After copying them to the new names

/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libhdf5_hl.so.8
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libhdf5.so.8

make runtest worked fine. I'm a Linux neophyte though so couldn't tell you why it was looking for the .8 files rather than the .7 files (or why my version of libhdf5-dev installed the .7 files rather than the .8 ones)
