How to install runtime package corresponding to a development package
Using for build an application libjpeg-dev package that is installed using
apt install libjpeg-dev
This command depending on ubuntu release install libjpeg8, or libjpeg62, or another one.
I was looking for a way to install the corresponding runtime package. I made some tries with apt rdepends
but it does not seems to give a solution.
Is there a way to query recursively dependencies of libjpeg-dev
filtering with regexp like ^libjpeg[0-9]+$
?
You have to ask APT to help you. Use special apt-cache showsrc
command.
Below is the output from Ubuntu 18.04 LTS:
$ apt-cache showsrc libjpeg-dev Package: libjpeg8-empty Format: 1.0 Binary: libjpeg8, libjpeg8-dev, libjpeg8-dbg, libjpeg-progs, libjpeg-dev Architecture: any Version: 8c-2ubuntu8 Priority: optional Section: graphics Maintainer: Ubuntu Developers Standards-Version: 3.9.2 Build-Depends: debhelper Directory: pool/main/libj/libjpeg8-empty Package-List: libjpeg-dev deb libdevel optional libjpeg-progs deb graphics optional libjpeg8 deb libs optional libjpeg8-dbg deb debug extra libjpeg8-dev deb libdevel optional Files: 31a463aaa1f1eebbc86513bc40961297 1637 libjpeg8-empty_8c-2ubuntu8.dsc 49661f8f11881b68f968014fa4646c37 1770 libjpeg8-empty_8c-2ubuntu8.tar.gz Checksums-Sha1: 90149344926868c76eec41f433399072985f77af 1637 libjpeg8-empty_8c-2ubuntu8.dsc d243fbec03a1249aeebc6f7de58a522591e6013c 1770 libjpeg8-empty_8c-2ubuntu8.tar.gz Checksums-Sha256: e7f575dcb3e0d462513b6f928179baa0ff1d145273934b1041b714515096b407 1637 libjpeg8-empty_8c-2ubuntu8.dsc 48a4227e9fc70851a4f304b10624e02875bf6f4e2debfcbe4ba0dd85a3ec05c6 1770 libjpeg8-empty_8c-2ubuntu8.tar.gz
