The svn path indicated in the download page of web site are the correct one. 
But for downloading a specific release, you don't have to read the subversion 
repository. I generate tar.gz archives that you can download from 
sourceforge. Links are on the download page too.

LOL: you downloaded EVERYTHING! The current development version (3.x), the 
stable version (2.x), all releases (2.0, 2.1, 2.2... 2.7), all specific 
branches (temporary modifications made by specific developers). Thanks to 
you, I know now how much room it takes. :-)

The organization is the following:

'/branches/2.0' is the next 2.x version.
'/trunk' is the current development tree (next 3.0 version)
'/tags' contains each release of Gambas.

Hmm. Don't know... Which exact versions of qt are installed on your system?
