[Gambas-user] Gambas2: Archlinux/Slackware packages on Ubuntu, how can I make them?

[Niki Star]

Hello dear Gambas devels/users,

I use Gambas 2.21 on Ubuntu maverick 10.10 to develop a dual-pane text
editor for translators. I want to create installation packages for Archlinux
and Slackware, but Gambas displays these messages:

Archlinux: 'makepkg' is not installed on your system.
Slackware: 'tar-1.13; is not installed on your system.

I can't find these packages in my package repositories. How can I get
makepkg and tar-1.13 on Ubuntu, without replacing my apt and tar versions?

Thanks in advance,
Niki Star
