[Gambas-user] Compiling Gambas on an Allwinner A10 based system

[Bruce Cunningham]

Ian,

I agree completely.  I REALLY, REALLY didn't want to compile Gambas, but I haven't found reliable binaries for the Allwinner SOC.  The Linaro repositories only seem to have Gambas2 binaries.

Believe me, I would have liked to just install Gambas3 and start working on my project instead of spending a week so far trying to compile Gambas3 from source.

Attached is the latest log (as Jussi requested).

ok, it's an old ubuntu derivative
have a look at kendek's PPA
(https://launchpad.net/~nemh/+archive/gambas3), it includes armhf builds.

As a very general comment: gambas is a big complex program, compiling it is not easy even for seasoned Linux users. If you are new to Linux you are probably going to have a much better experience with pre-compiled binaries than jumping straight into compiling source.
