Install GNU Scientific library (GSL) on Ubuntu 14.04 via terminal
I am trying to install GSL libraries on Ubuntu 14.04 via terminal. I searched on Google but I couldn't find any command which can install it from the terminal but just through the Ubuntu software center. How can it be installed via terminal?
Solution 1:
The GSL source package provides the following binary packages:
- gsl-bin: GNU Scientific Library (GSL) -- binary package
- libgsl0-dbg: GNU Scientific Library (GSL) -- debug symbols package
- libgsl0-dev: GNU Scientific Library (GSL) -- development package
- libgsl0ldbl: GNU Scientific Library (GSL) -- library package
To install the library package, open a Terminal and type:
sudo apt-get install libgsl0ldbl
Solution 2:
The packages for GSL can be found here
You can install just the library by using:
apt-get install libgsl0ldbl
You can also install the development package and binary using:
apt-get install gsl-bin libgsl0-dev
The resources/docs can also be installed using:
apt-get install gsl-doc-info gsl-doc-pdf gsl-ref-html gsl-ref-psdoc
*depending on your setup you may need to use sudo before the apt-get command
