[Gambas-user] problems after ubuntu 11.04 update --> same under 11.10

[JUHASZ Robert]

Cure is OK, too: from synaptic I removed all the installed gambas
components and now the IDE works properly.
Thank you so much for the help.

Hello Jesus,

I absolutely understand what you mean and I think that it's a correct
explanation. I'll avoid installing programs written in gambas on my main
OS in the future and will only do on a testing virtual machine.
So understanding and prevention are fine :-)

Do you have any idea for the cure? How could I get working my gambas
without re-installing the OS?
I tries to recompile, also tried to delete the installation files and
recompile but it doesn't work.

Thx,
Robi

Yes, I know. But I'm talking only about Gambas2 and the differences
between the paths where it's installed, depending on the way it's installed.

The same will be applicable to Gambas3 when there will be packages in
official repositories.

The actual conflict comes when you have two versions of the Gambas2
interpreter, etc, in different places in the $PATH.
