[Gambas-user] Release of gambas 1.9.14

Mon Aug 1 05:59:30 CEST 2005

Hi, i'm having the same problem. i'm using suse 9.3 and i have this 
components disabled:

- gb.clanlib
- gb.db.odbc
- gb.db.postgresql
- gb.sdl

i downloaded curl and compiled and mysql-devel from the suse's ftp 
because mysql-devel and libcurl are not on the cds.

any ideas?
