Chris, have you tried installing from repositories?
Does it work at the end of the day?
Here are lists of files for hdf5-tools and hdf5-helpers if you are lost.
with this user, you really have to look at their posting history.
started about a dozen threads about installing python stuff, ignoring the obvious advice of "use the repos" and always starts a new thread instead of trying to solve the problem first.
all in the last 2 weeks.

I'm sorry, I'm trying my best to learn. This is a forum for helping new users, not for criticizing them surely?
But I still can't get my head around this repository stuff guys. No one has took the time to give me a proper explanation, instead just swatting me with "use the repos".
If I'm correct, can you just use the command
Code:
sudo apt-get install <thing>
will this install stuff straight from these repository things? I have 'googled' this, I know they're archives of online software programs, I know there's 4 of them... but I'm not exactly sure how to use them.

Looks like Chris is not yet familiar with what repositories are, hence attempts of building. For newcomers it's okay.
Each distro is tied to a pool of software called a repository. The software in the repository is verified to work properly with the distro. Installing software from outside the repository can and does cause problems. While Ubuntu and Debian both come from the same base (Debian), they are not the same. Installing a Ubuntu based program in Debian may work or may not and vice-versa.
Pick a distro and only install from the repository until you understand what you're doing. As Ubuntu (and all of its derivatives) has a huge repository, it's likely that all you need is there. It can be installed through Software Center, Synaptic (which I use) or apt-get (which I also use).
You really need to take the time to do some reading so you actually understand how the whole package management philosophy works. I've seen all your posts and you have yet to show you have paid any attention to the advice you've been given and soon folks are going to just give up helping you...

Hi NGIB,
Thanks for the advice. So if I wanted to install a program from the repository on my system using apt-get, I would say something like
Also, you need to stop posting multiple threads about the same issue. As I said in your other thread, install Synaptic and you can use it to figure out what you're looking for. Rather that continue to ask the same thing fifty different ways, perhaps you need to follow the advice you've been given and actually put some effort into learning what you're trying to do.
If you continue the path you've been on, I suspect folks will add you to their ignore list - I know I will...
