Ubuntu :: LibUSB - How To Check If It Is Installed
Jun 1, 2011
I'm trying to install libusb. I've downloaded a file from [URL]. I've unzipped the file; the folder's on my desktop. I've tried to install this, but I'm not sure how. Under installation it says: See the file 'INSTALL'. There are a few files that start with this term: INSTALL.libusb, INSTALL.libusb.in and install-sh. The first two appear to be the same, while the latter appears to be some sort of program.
When I double click it, I get a few options, including "run". I assumed this was the correct way to install the program, but when I hit run, nothing happens. I've displayed this file, but this gives me no additional information. I've tried running it in terminal: nothing. Maybe it has installed, and I just don't know it. How would I even check if it's installed? (I'm only installing libusb because I need it for something else).

I've just installed ubuntu 9.04 (had the disc from before) and I'm upgrading to 9.10 of course but I have a question. How do I check that I have the latest drivers installed for everything in my laptop?

I know with if statements in bash you can do Code: if [ $fruit = apple ] then echo "Good, I like Apples" fi But I was wondering if you could do something like this: Code: if [apt-cache pkgnames smbfs = smbfs doesn't exist] the apt-get install smbfs fi If so how would you capture the output from apt-cache pkgname smbfs to determine if it's installed?
After sifting through numerous apt-get apt-cache apt-file tutorials I still can't find a command to check if a package is installed via the terminal command/line.

I'd love to know how to check the original configuration of a self-installed package? For example, I would like to install the package XXXXX. I did:

Maybe some dependencies (for example, A,B,C...) were not found so that XXXXX was installed without depending on A,B,C.... However, now, I would like XXXXX depend on A,B,C... How to check whether the current installed XXXXX's original configuration?
