Hi. Following the instructions I get stuck on

/usr/local# dpkg -i Singular-core_3.1.5-1_x86_64.deb
dpkg: error processing Singular-core_3.1.5-1_x86_64.deb (--install):
cannot access archive: No such file or directory
Errors were encountered while processing:
Singular-core_3.1.5-1_x86_64.deb

Is the deb file located in your current working directory? (switching to superuser could change your working directory)

Even worse: it's only available for Windows: http://www.imaginary2008.de/surfer
surf.lib and probably the other libs you had mention define just interfaces to Third-Party-Software. The documentation in the library headers tell you how to install them accordingly, see also http://www.singular.uni-kl.de/Manual/la ... ng_834.htm .

Yes, for several libraries you need third-party-software.
For example, surf.lib requires the programs surf and/or surfer.
But they are also available for Linux and OsX.
