Hello,

however dpkg command gives the following: root@1[/]# dpkg -l libginac-dev No packages found matching libginac-dev.
In plain English that means "package libginac-dev is not installed".
However, in aptitude, libginac shows up in the installed packages.
libginac1.3* contains only shared library, so it is sufficient for running *already compiled* programs. But for compiling/linking with GiNaC you need also libginac-dev.
As i am using a live dvd, i cannot upgrade or install anything from the web.
Technically, this is not true: installing packages on KNOPPIX (and probably any derived distro) _without remastering_ is possible. Regular 'aptitude install', 'dpkg -i' work fine.
Best regards, Alexei
