Hi Nelson,

That is interesting.  I don't have uuid-dev installed.
Now I look at the dependencies it seems that uuid-dev is 
not a dependency.  Instead, libuuid1 is the dependency.

gsharp at stonesmith:~$ dpkg -S /lib/libuuid.so.1
libuuid1: /lib/libuuid.so.1

I don't understand why one in /lib, and another in /usr/lib.
But anyway, that does explain the problem.
