I'm aiming to install APE in Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, a simple code for pseudopotential generation. I'm having this error message while running ./configure:

checking for gsl-config... no
checking for GSL - version >= 1.0... no
*** The gsl-config script installed by GSL could not be found
*** If GSL was installed in PREFIX, make sure PREFIX/bin is in
*** your path, or set the GSL_CONFIG environment variable to the
*** full path to gsl-config.
configure: error: could not find required gsl library

I checked and I have the GSL already installed:

:~/Programas/ape-2.2.0$ dpkg -l | grep gsl
ii  libgsl0ldbl                    1.16+dfsg-1ubuntu1 
            i386     GNU Scientific Library (GSL) -- library package

So I have the library but the program installation isn't finding it. Any help?

Thanks in advance
