[Gambas-user] Gambas2 Gambas3 Compilation

[Randy Millner]

Trying to help the 64bit distro of PcLinuxOS by compiling first
Gambas2 and then Gambas3

When making sure I have all components first per the Gambas documentation,
it seems most components exist, but with numbers appended to the filename

For Example:

[ee at ...40... ~]$ locate libmysqlclient.so
/usr/lib64/libmysqlclient.so.16
/usr/lib64/libmysqlclient.so.16.0.0

[ee at ...40... ~]$ locate libz.so
/lib/libz.so.1
/lib/libz.so.1.2.5
/lib64/libz.so.1
/lib64/libz.so.1.2.5
/usr/lib/libz.so.1
/usr/lib/libz.so.1.2.5
/usr/lib/dropbox-dist/libz.so.1
/usr/lib64/libz.so.1
/usr/lib64/libz.so.1.2.5

Shouldn't the target file be somewhere exactly matching the argument
to 'locate' ?

The 64bit version of the OS might release early 2012, the release
candidate is very stable,  volunteers
are hard at work getting the repos filled.  Gambas needs to be in the
repos when the 64bit version debuts.

any help is appreciated.
