Hi Neil,

Since no one more expert than me answers, I compiled the stable version
on Fedora 39.
The libraries should also be the same for Fedora 40, if so, the
compilation of the master version of Gambas3 should be this, open the
terminal and type these commands one at a time by writing the correct
password when requested:

sudo dnf install -y libtool libtool-ltdl-devel gcc make autoconf
dumb-devel gmime-devel gmime30-devel libffi-devel mariadb-devel
postgresql-devel unixODBC-devel sqlite2-devel libsqlite3x-devel
libxslt-devel libv4l-devel glew-devel poppler-devel poppler-glib-devel
poppler-cpp-devel qt-devel qt5-qtbase-devel qt5-qtbase-private-devel
qt5-qtwebengine-devel qt5-qtx11extras-devel qt5-qtsvg-devel
SDL_ttf-devel SDL_mixer-devel SDL-devel SDL2_ttf-devel SDL2_mixer-devel
SDL2_image-devel SDL2-devel cairo-devel gtk2-devel gtk3-devel

bzip2-devel libzstd-devel webkit2gtk3-devel ncurses-devel
qt6-qtbase-devel qt6-qtwebengine-devel qt6-qtsvg-devel git

git clone --depth=1 https://gitlab.com/gambas/gambas.git gambasdevel

cd gambasdevel

./reconf-all

GAMBAS_CONFIG_FAILURE=1 ./configure -C --disable-pdf

make -j$(nproc)

sudo make install


Instead, if you want to try to compile the latest stable version, change
these two commands like this:

git clone --branch stable --depth=1 https://gitlab.com/gambas/gambas.git
gambastable

cd gambastable
