On a side note:
Two more components are missing in my recipe (and I'll explain why):
gambas3-gb-jit -> as it was not in Gambas Ubuntu team ppa recipe and as you are the maker of these recipes I presumed there had to be a good reason why not, so I left it out of my recipes
gambas3-gb-hash -> same for this, not in Gambas Ubuntu team ppa recipe, so I left it out presuming there had to be a reason for you not incorporating them into your Gambas Ubuntu Team builds on Launchpad.
They are both in the package list on gambas wiki, so either they need to be removed from the package list or they need to be added to the recipe.
Is there a good reason why they where not in the Gambas Ubuntu Team recipe?
If not, I will add them to my control file and add the .install files and push new 3.19.6 and 3.19.90 recipes to my develop branch at my gitlab for the repositories.
I'm kind of putting the dots on the i in these recipes atm, to get the exactly as you want them.
Next I will to some test runs in vm making the actual packages.
Another 2 things:
There are some packages in the package list (like gambas3-gtk3-wayland for example and some more gtk3 ones) that depend on gambas3-gb-qt5 !!
This must be a mistake, but the list is auto generated, so I can't correct. (-> @{package-table}).Other problem is that this same list (-> @{package-table}) is also used for 3.19 where there is no gb.mongodb nor any gb.qt6 components!
And this same list is even used for 3.18, 3.17, 3.16 and 3.15 where there is no gb.highlight component for 3.18 and maybe even more components are different for older versions.
That is why I have kept the older recipes on my gitlab, as there is no way to know what packages exactly to make for these older version, when checking the wiki.
Before 3.15 the package list is a static table. Each new version should actually have a static table and the @{package-table} only serves the needs of latest master version.
So, when 3.20 comes out the current @{package-table} should be made static for 3.20, so that new added components to master to not interfere with required packages for that version.
