Bug Description
#### SRU Justification ###
[Impact]
The program is currently unusable in precise. The severity is high.
[Development Fix]
This was already fixed in quantal in 1.1.1-8ubuntu1 using the same fix that is proposed for the SRU. Patch can be found at: https:/
[Stable Fix]
Adjust configure flag to look for /usr/share/libctl
Patch can be found at: https:/
[Test Case]
1) Run meep in a terminal.
With the version in precise, it will error out with:
ERROR: In procedure open-file:
ERROR: No such file or directory: "/usr/share/
With the version in precise-proposed, a meep shell will open.
[Regression Potential]
The potential for regression is extremely low as the package is currently unusable.
#######
meep installation appeared to complete properly under Ubuntu 12.04 (sudo apt-get install meep). Typing to command "meep" into the terminal to start the program yielded the following error:
ERROR: In procedure open-file:
ERROR: No such file or directory: "/usr/share/
The problem was resolved by creating a new directory /usr/share/libctl3 and copying contents of the folder /usr/share/libctl to /usr/share/libctl3.
After this, the meep program started correctly.
****My Ubuntu 12.04 installation was done as an upgrade from 10.04****

I think it's a libctl3 bug, not meep. Seems like libctl3 needs to install to /usr/share/libctl3 instead of /usr/share/libctl.
