Gambas 3.20.2 for Ubuntu 20.04/ Mint 20.3 Outdated ?


Hi

A buddy of mine wanted to test Gambas on his Ubuntu 20.04 machine as Gambas-Newbee and installed it from the OpensSuse OBS. As he wasn't able to use the Farm (dialog closes when selecting something) I setup a Mint 20.3 VM (=Ubuntu 20.04) and got the same problem. It seems that the version is from times before the farm repository has been moved to another server.

The support for Ubuntu 20.04/ Mint 20.3 is running out this month but was this a reason not to update Gambas any longer for that distro? I further noticed, that the date of the Stable version is always the same (9th March 2025). I further found that the Systeminformation in the Mint 20.3 VM states "3.20.2 972c02e (master)". On my Mint 22 PC the system information in identical ("3.20.2 972c02e (master)") but the Farm works well.

So why is my Mint 22-Gambas working well while the Mint 20.04-Gambas with the same version does not and how can we distinguish between update states under the given circumstances ?

Best regards

Claus
