[Gambas-user] Gambas2-2.7.0 on Fedora 9 64bit

[Seb Brown]

Hello Board,
having had my 1st programming experiences on an Amstrad CPC6128 with Locomotive BASIC back in the early 90ies, I have recently been trying to get back into programming. I have been trying to get familiar with the current languages such as C++ and/or Java ... it's not the object-oriented approach that bugs me, it's the syntax (C++ is simply horrible to read)! So, I was happy to read about Gambas just the other day as I was looking for object oriented BASIC-alternatives for Linux.
Enough blurb, here's the problem: I can't get it to start :o(
I am Using Fedora 9 x86_64bit (Kernel 2.6.25.9-76.fc9.x86_64, Gnome 2.22.2) on a Samsung Laptop with an Intel 64 bit Processor. The version of Gambas is 2.7.0-1.fc9 (x86_64) which I installed via package manager from the Fedora repository.
When I try to launch Gambas from the start menu, I get the message 'starting Gambas' in the task bar, but then it silently fails.
Typing Gambas2 in the console gives me this error: ERROR: #2: Cannot load class 'Project': Unable to load class file
I would be very happy about any hints on how to get things working!
Thanks in advance,
Seb.
