install HDF5 and pytables in ubuntu
Question:
I am trying to install tables package in Ubuntu 14.04 but sems like it is complaining.
I am trying to install it using PyCharm and its package installer, however seems like it is complaining about HDF5 package.
However, seems like I cannnot find any hdf5 package to install before tables.
Could anyone explain the procedure to follow?
Answers:
Try to install libhdf5-7 and python-tables via apt
Search for the HDF5 library in the ubuntu package repository.
apt-cache search hdf5
The command will show the packages relating to hdf5.
install the relevant package to you.
sudo apt-get install package-name.
mostly you have to install the hdf5-tools, h5utils, python-tables.
I found that installing the libhdf5-serial-dev with
sudo apt-get install libhdf5-serial-dev
did the trick.
To be more precise, do two steps on Ubuntu
1) install hdf5
sudo apt-get install libhdf5-serial-dev
2) install pytables
pip install tables
