OK I tried that using autotools.  After decompressing I ran the normal
install sequence.  Here's the output:

[bb at ...2711... phCCDemo-0.0]$ ./configure 
checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking for a thread-safe mkdir -p... /bin/mkdir -p
checking for gawk... gawk
checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes
checking for gambas3 binaries... Ok
checking for gambas3 components path... Ok
checking for gb.image component... Ok
checking for gb.gui component... Ok
checking for gb.form component... Ok
checking for gb.desktop component... Ok

[root at ...2711... phCCDemo-0.0]# 

That all looks good, so then :

[bb at ...2711... gambas3]$ cd /usr/local/lib/gambas3/
[bb at ...2711... gambas3]$ ls -a *ph*
ls: cannot access *ph*: No such file or directory
[bb at ...2711... gambas3]$ cd /usr/local/share/gambas3/info/
[bb at ...2711... info]$ ls -a *ph*
ls: cannot access *ph*: No such file or directory
[bb at ...2711... info]$ 

So nothing got put into these targets?  (and the library (which if I
understand correctly is now a Component) is still not available in the
IDE)

Help!
