Linking Octave with HDF5

[Lester Wade]

Thanks for your responses.  Looking at the config.log it looks like this 
could be the problem;

configure:7871: checking for H5Pcreate in -lhdf5
configure:7901: gcc -o conftest -g -O2 -I/usr/local/hdf/include 
-L/usr/local/hdf conftest.c -lhdf5  -lz -lm  >&5
/usr/bin/ld: warning: libsz.so.2, needed by 
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/3.4.4/../../../libhdf5.so, not found 
(try using -rpath or -rpath-link)
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/3.4.4/../../../libhdf5.so: undefined 
reference to `SZ_encoder_enabled'
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/3.4.4/../../../libhdf5.so: undefined 
reference to `SZ_BufftoBuffCompress'
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/3.4.4/../../../libhdf5.so: undefined 
reference to `SZ_BufftoBuffDecompress'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
configure:7907: $? = 1
configure: failed program was:
| /* confdefs.h.  */

Is this common?  anyhow, I'll track down libsz.so.2.

Kind Regards,

Lester Wade
