[GiNaC-list] Problem with linking ginac

[aravind b]

hi alexei,
thanks a lot for the reply.
however dpkg command gives the following:

root at 1[/]# dpkg -l libginac-dev
No packages found matching libginac-dev.

However, in aptitude, libginac shows up in the installed packages. As i am
using a live dvd, i cannot upgrade or install anything from the web.

Is installing debian on my hard disk, the only way out if i want to use
ginac ? :(
