Thanks for this.

I'm not that expert on Linux, but I tried installing Gambas2 and failed at the first hurdle.
trying to configure I get:

$ ./configure
bash: ./configure: No such file or directory

Even though configure.ac is present ?

Any ideas anyone?

Regards, Dave

Try to execute ./reconf-all   first


Then ./configure -C --disable-jit      .... not all modules are needed

Does it matter where I unzip the Gambas2 files and run install from?

Also I seem to be having some difficulty in totally removing Gambas3.
Although I have removed from all known locations, if I type Gambas in my menu search I see the Gambas3 icon, nothing happens If I click on it but I'm worried that some of it is still present, somewhere?

./reconf-all displays the following errors:


./reconf-all: 7: ./reconf-all: libtoolize: not found
./reconf-all: 8: ./reconf-all: autoreconf: not found

 No... but the usual place is /usr/src

... you do not need to be root for compiling.... but for installing yes.


Gambas 2 and Gambas 3 can coexist in the same computer.

The last chanse is to install a precompiled version


any graphical package manager.

DO NOT USE the official packages made by Ubuntu for 12.10. They are wrong!

There are binary packages for the latest /trunk made daily by Sebastian Kulesz:

$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:sebikul/gambas-daily

It allows you to test the latest development version without having to compile it!

Hi Pino,
Thanks for all your help with this, but I simply cant get Gambas2 to install on my Linux Mint 14 PC.
It's a shame as I can see that DBLog has many features that my current logger (CQRLog) doesn't have.

I'll continue to try and install it perodically, but for now I think I'll have to concede defeat.

73's Dav, G8FXM

I have Gamabs2 installed on an other Mint 14 machine...so it can be done...

it is matter to understand the process...  we are in the OM hobby for learning...
