Hi all -- I have just been bitten by this HDF5 default API bug in Debian "squeeze". Juha Jäykkä's work-around solves my immediate problem (thank you!!), but I will be upgrading numerous scientific development systems to Debian "squeeze" in the coming months.
I appreciate that the API issue is resolved in version 1.8.6 of the libhdf5-*-dev packages, but for a variety of reasons, it is impractical for me to move a large number of production systems to "testing" or "experimental" in order to obtain it. It would be an enormous convenience to me, and probably to many other Debian admins, if there could be a back-port of the API fix to "squeeze". Thanks. -- A. -- Dr. Andrew C. E.
