Thank you very much Tom.

I've found that a folder containing a libgen.so file is mounted on the 
machine, but physically located on a different machine (which is why I 
didn't find it using 'locate'). The libgen.so file belongs to a software 
package for handling the radar data I'm working with. Other than that, 
there is a libgen.h file but no libgen.a or libgen.so.(anything).

Would you know what I need to fix to let the installation proceed?

Thanks,
Poul Jensen
