Hi Jorge,

I'm not sure I understand your exact problem but I'll try to answer anyway.
I tried Arch Linux on a virtual machine and compiled Gambas with pacman.
You are a member of Gambas-it.org if you go here: 
https://www.gambas-it.org/smf/index.php?topic=8049.msg49120#msg49120
you can download the pdf of the general process.

Here:
https://gitlab.com/gambas/gambas/-/blob/master/.gitlab-ci.yml?ref_type=heads
there are all the libraries useful to the OS

I hope that's what you need

Best regards

Gianluigi
