Hi

I'm sure this is a problem related to mixing two kind of installations:
Gambas IDE (and all its components) from sources and parts of gambas
coming from repositories (those who your deb package installs).

Since compiled sources result in a set of binaries located at
/usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib/gambas2 and /usr/local/share/gambas2,
unlike packages installed from repository that are placed in /usr/bin,
/usr/lib/gambas2 and /usr/share/gambas2.

This means that the two paths, compiled vs repositories, are in the
environment path. Probably, binaries differ each other, but then the
system is using -in your case, it seems- the older ones.

>From the beginning of Gambas I'm aware of this, so it's not a good idea
to install deb packages made by the gambas IDE in a computer having
Gambas installed by compiling from the latest SVN.

Hope you will understand, my English is not as good as I'd like.
