Auchh...no.
I did it after your advice but still calling
Code:
sudo apt-get install pstack

I don't get anything back.
I am trying to build the files shown in the web site.
I downloaded the files and called
Code:
me@myPc:~/myFolder$dpkg-source -x pstack_1.2-1.dsc

gpgv: Signature made Fri 08 Oct 2004 19:00:15 BST using DSA key ID AB474598
gpgv: Can't check signature: public key not found
dpkg-source: warning: failed to verify signature on ./pstack_1.2-1.dsc
dpkg-source: info: extracting pstack in pstack-1.2
dpkg-source: info: unpacking pstack_1.2.orig.tar.gz
dpkg-source: info: applying pstack_1.2-1.diff.gz
dpkg-source: info: upstream files that have been modified: 
 pstack-1.2/pstack.c

After then I try to build the library
Code:
cd pstack
make

cc -Wall -DVERSION=\"1.2\"  -g -o pstack pstack.c
pstack.c: In function ‘loadSymbols':
pstack.c:505: warning: cast from pointer to integer of different size
pstack.c: In function ‘crawl':
pstack.c:544: error: ‘EIP' undeclared (first use in this function)
pstack.c:544: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
pstack.c:544: error: for each function it appears in.)
pstack.c:546: error: ‘EBP' undeclared (first use in this function)
make: *** [pstack] Error 1

From the README files I see that they need ELF library. I installed them already but still it cannot compile. I might probably using a wrong one or what?

PSTACK(1)						     Linux Programmer's Manual							 PSTACK(1)

NAME
pstack - print a stack trace of running processes SYNOPSIS
pstack pid [...] DESCRIPTION
pstack attaches to the active processes named by the pids on the command line, and prints out an execution stack trace, including a hint at what the function arguments are. If symbols exist in the binary (usually the case unless you have run strip(1)), then symbolic addresses are printed as well. If the process is part of a thread group, then pstack will print out a stack trace for each of the threads in the group. RESTRICTIONS
pstack currently works only on Linux, only on an x86 machine running 32 bit ELF binaries (64 bit not supported). Also, for symbolic infor- mation, you need to use a GNU compiler to generate your program, and you can't strip symbols from the binaries. For thread information to be dumped, you have to use the debug-aware version of the LinuxThreads libpthread.so library. (To check, run nm(1) on your pthreads library, and make sure that the symbol "__pthread_threads_debug" is defined.) Threads are not supported with the newer NPTL libpthread.so library. SEE ALSO
