Ruby :-/ Let's give it a try -- If I read that message correctly, Ruby is looking for some thingie called "bdb" (that first line). Since it is Ruby, most probably the file isn't really called "bdb", but probably "bdb.rb" [1]. Let's try: tomas@trotzki:~$ apt-file search bdb.rb ruby-bio: /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/bio/io/flatfile/bdb.rb whatweb: /usr/share/whatweb/plugins/oracle-webdb.rb The second seems irrelevant. So my crystal ball says "try install ruby-bio". But use judgement: don't do it if it doesn't ring a bell :-) Cheers [1] Didn't we had enough bad experience hiding the so-called "file extension" in a long-dead non-operating system? -- t
