Packages marked with * in the table above are virtual packages (you'll have to pick one of the displayed versions).
{{Note|if only the native graphics toolkit will be used, gnuplot will not be necessary.}}


{{Warning|<ul><li>The Debian repositoriy has several libraries for dealing with HDF data files. The recommended is {{Codeline|libhdf5-serial-dev}}. However, the {{Forge|msh|msh package}} requires [http://www.geuz.org/gmsh/ gmsh] which is incompatible with it.</li>
