Dear Moderator:
I have installed Suse 12.2 mainly because I want to run gambas on
Linux as an alternative to VB6 on Win2K in a modest embedded
system. I'm a newbie at Linux (and gambas) but used zypper to
(apparently successfully) install gambas3 from
/munix9:/gambas/openSUSE_12.2/. However I got the message "could not
install gambas3-examples gambas3-gb-net-curl" because "nothing
provides gambas3-net = 3.2.1 needed by gambas3-examples
gambas3-gb-net-curl-3.21-6-21.i586" Now, as a newbie I'm pretty
interested in examples in general, so Question 1 is whether or not I
should concern myself about that and Question 2 is how would I go
about remedying that omission. I take it gambas3-net = 3.2.1 is some
sort of dependency - how widely needed I am unsure. A quick google
search suggests that gambas3-gb-net-curl (or at least one version) is
a component package for "net-curl" - is part of a Fedora package for
X86 64 machines. I am 32 bit (i586) at this stage, so maybe I can
ignore the whole bit - and I don't need my gambas project to work
on/with the net or with URLs, which I gather is what cURL refers
to. Helpful comments?
