If I need to get the -dev package with the same version as the libwmf I already have, how would I determine which version I have, so that I could get the correct development package ???

Thanks, I hope to get this wmf thumbnail plugin running, it will make finding the right clip art a lot easier

You should have the version for the package you have installed to find it do.

They are both at the same version so you just install libwmf-dev and you will get the correct package.
