[Gambas-user] Gambas SVN download/compile

[Jason Hackney]

On the off chance that someone other than myself would like to automate
downloading the source from SVN and compiling, I've attached a bash script
that does it for Ubuntu 8.10. I have had to do it a number of times in the
past couple days so I figured I'd put together a relatively crude script.

Some notes:

-) It's based heavily on this page:
http://gambasdoc.org/help/install/ubuntu?show by Gareth Bult.

-) I am doing this on an ASUS Eee PC running the latest eeebuntu (standard
edition).

-) The script automatically downloads (and downgrades) a correct libtool
package for 32-bit systems.

-) I did't get too enchanted with trapping errors and such (I just needed
something that worked)

-) You will have to edit the HOMEDIR variable to reflect your home
directory.

-) Finally, make sure you run the script as superuser.

I'm open to suggestions for making it better if anyone finds it interesting.

Cheers,
Jason
