Having posted the above, I see that

- gambas-team repository isn't mentioned - where has it gone?
- there seem to be Gambas3 packages which were left out

So I might do this:

- uninstall what is "Gambas3" now
- maybe clean the directories like Bruce said
- then add the gambas-team repo (which one has stable?)
- then (re)install Gambas

Is that correct?
