[Gambas-user] new user questions

[Allen Murphy]

Shannon,

I have Gambas2 running on Ubuntu Edgy.  I did not use the .deb packages. 
I installed it from source with the usual ./configure, make, and sudo make
install commands.  However, prior to compiling, you will need to make sure
the appropriate libraries are installed.  The README link on the Gambas
website is very specific in this area.  It details each library along with
the component that depends on it.

It took a little research using the website packages.ubuntu.com, but I was
able to locate the Ubuntu packages necessary to install the required
libraries using Synaptic.  Once that was done, the compilation and
installation were a snap.  Note that by installing this way, you Gambas2
program will not be managed by Apt or Synaptic.

As for number 2 on your list, I think the destination needs Gambas
installed to run your application.

Take care,
Allen
