Wed 02 Oct 2024 05:47:10 PM UTC, comment #5: Thanks, I updated the config file in the repository.	Nir Krakauer <nir_krakauer>
Tue 21 May 2024 12:41:16 PM UTC, comment #4: Looks like fedora 30 doesnt find the pkg config file either, however the fallback for trying just the lib hdf5 works and allows it to compile	John Donoghue <lostbard>
Mon 20 May 2024 03:57:30 PM UTC, comment #3: Has something changed compared to previous versions of Octave or HDF5 that's leading to this error?	Nir Krakauer <nir_krakauer>
Sat 18 May 2024 08:03:41 PM UTC, comment #2: The bug summary is wrong. It should have been: "[octave forge] (communications) Failure to detect the HDF5 library" Could you please change it?	Rafael Laboissière <rlaboiss>
Wed 15 May 2024 04:23:58 PM UTC, comment #1: Is it communications or netcdf package? (I guess the latter)	Philip Nienhuis <philipnienhuis>
Sat 11 May 2024 07:05:26 PM UTC, original submission: In my Debian system (amd64 architecture, unstable distribution), the communications package fails to build from source due to the absence of the hdf5.pc file: $ debuild […] checking for hdf5... no checking for H5Fopen in -lhdf5... no configure: error: hdf5 not found In Debian, the available pkgconfig files for HDF5 are the following: $ apt-file find pkgconfig/hdf5 libhdf5-dev: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/hdf5-serial.pc libhdf5-mpich-dev: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/hdf5-mpich.pc libhdf5-openmpi-dev: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/hdf5-openmpi.pc I am applying the patch attached to this bug report to the Debian package octave-communications. I am not sure that it will be useful for other systems.	Rafael Laboissière <rlaboiss>
