Maybe a hint: apt-file search doesn't list files that're installed so the advice from Tomas is still valid. However, it did actually show one problem: libnglib-dev: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/netgen/libgui.so Meaning, you need libnglib-dev for libgui.so. And then you need to run netgen the way the packaged .desktop file does it: LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/netgen NETGENDIR=/usr/share/netgen /usr/bin/netgen At least I got a GUI window after that. I don't know how to actually use netgen though.
