[Gambas-user] Gambas 2.0 in Ubuntu 7.10

[Daniel Campos]

Well, I've tested all on Ubuntu 7.10 and Ubuntu 7.04, but I can't
reproduce the problem. I just found that using:

apt-get install gambas2

Does not upgrade all packages, but the ones not upgraded does not have
any relation with the problem, but using:

apt-get dist-upgrade

instead works fine to upgrade all packages.

All seems to work here without problems after the upgrade. So for
people having this problem I suggest to:

1) Search the installed gambas2 packages after the upgrade:

dpkg -l | grep ii | grep gambas2

If you find any package still having 1.9.91 version, just install the
new version using "apt-get install [package-name]" and recheck with
the prior command.

2) Check that you use all Ubuntu sections in apt: main universe
multiverse and restricted, as some packages may not find the
dependencies if you use just the main section.

3) If any problem related with configuration options, delete the
.config/gambas folder in your home directory then try again.

4) If after all the problem persists, delete /usr/share/gambas2 and
/usr/lib/gambas2 folders, then use "apt-get install --reinstall
[package name]" for all gambas2 packages.

I can not find any better automated sollution, all seems to be right
in the packages, using a Debian SID distribution all works fine in the
upgrade, and the Ubuntu packages are made from the Debian ones, so all
should work in the same way... except if Ubuntu made any extrange
changes in apt or dpkg, but I doubt it...
