How do I know if a .lib file is in my ubuntu or not?

[elecbear]

Hey guys, is there any command line that can show me the list of .lib files & development tools I've already have in my ubuntu?

Thanks a lot!

There will be a bazillion lib files on your system.
Perhaps there is an easier way. What libs and or development packages are you searching for?

You could just install aptitude and run:

aptitude search .lib
Note that this will be a long!!! list of .libs. You could pipe it through less so you could scroll through it.
It would be more productive to search for the libs that you are looking for.

And welcome to the Ubuntu forums!

So, just out of curiosity, did you find the lib(s) that you were looking for?
Write back if you need more help.
