hi,

slowly things are getting a bit frustrating.
I don't think so, but perhaps I have insulted someone? or are my themes
so less interesting, no one cares to answer? I do not expect that all
just are waiting for my problems, but absolutly no responce seems a
little strange. 
I follow the mailing-list all the time; I can see endless discussions
about the philosophy of tabs, and no one seems to care about problems
which are essential to get gambas out to the people. not all docs are
that easy to understand or so complete that one can use them as a
guideline - perhaps for the one who wrote the doc - not necessarily for
some others. it is not easy to write docs for a software which is
permanently developing, clear enough. one of my thoughts was to write
some examples my self, still want to, but there is a lot to learn first,
and as gambas develops, changes turns up, so my first attempts got old
even before I could put them on the net. 

nevertheless - I mainly write database-apps, and they are running in one
or another network. it may be a lokal network or on a database in web
with an external connection. so I will have to test the apps on several
computers. and this is getting difficult. on my workstattion, ubuntu
9.10, I had no troubles installing gambas 3 SVN. then I tried to make an
installation-package for ubuntu for my second PC - failed. 

is there any place I can find a detailled doc for creating an
installation package? the problem is, the assistant quits with an
error-message: failed to create package. period. I would need some more
info.

thanks and regards,
Dag Jarle Johansen
