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.

This is a common bug that affects several systems.
I suggest you to compile Gambas directly from the source code (it's not
so difficult). At this page:
http://gambasdoc.org/help/readme?view
you can find the list of all the dependencies.
