Problems install PB on Ubuntu

GedB · Post by **GedB** » Sun Sep 10, 2006 2:01 am

I've just made the swtich to Ubuntu and while the IDE runs, I've got problems compiling.

I'm getting the following error:

Error: Linker
.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path
Perhaps you should add the directory containing 'gtk+2.0.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable.
No package 'gtk+2.0 found
Package gthread-2.0was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing 'gthread-2.0.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PAT environment variable.
No package 'gthread-2.0 found
sh: gcc: command not found

I've searched for gtk+2.0.pc on the filesystem but I cannot find it.

The package manager says that libgtk2 is installed.

I'd appreciate some help.[/quote]

Thanks, I'll give it a try in the morning.

ts-soft,

Thanks, that worked a treat.

I am blown away with how easy the switch to Ubuntu has been.

Now I hope they hurry up with 4, cos I can't live without prototypes for long.

Me neither

According to what the PureBasic development team said, it's just a matter of weeks before the public beta of PureBasic 4 for Linux arrives.

Can't find package named build-essential
Can't find package named libgtk1.2-dev
Can't find package named libgtk2.0-dev
Can't find package named libsdl1.2-dev

Udpdate your
/etc/apt/sources.list

seems like there is something missing in it.

Okay, I just installed all the libs you said. And everything is working here!

Here is my sources.list in case somebody needs that.

Code: Select all

Thanks!
I've built my sources.list file in several ways (one of them just like you Brujah show, and another replacing 'de' by 'es' in the links), but this is the message i get:

al@al-laptop:~$ sudo apt-get install build-essential

dpkg: syntax error: unknown group `root' in statoverride file

Apart of that, i've tested several debian based distros in my laptop, and all of them make the cpu fan to run very fast and so making too much noise

I will test open-suse, but i have not too much hopes on it

Solved doing this:

Code: Select all

sudo dpkg-statoverride --remove /var/run/hplip

And also if you deleted 'root' group then do:

Code: Select all

sudo addgroup root

But the noise of the fan is not solved. Perhaps suse solves it? I will tell you :roll:

$ sudo apt-get install build-essential
$ sudo apt-get install libgtk1.2-dev
$ sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev
$ sudo apt-get install libsdl1.2-dev

These worked with me too!

PLEASE, for god's sake, write a script and include it in the purebasic folder, that a linux greenhorn has a chance to run PureBasic without having to cry out for help in the forums!

I think that's your duty - under windows, an installer would've been supported, that's for sure!
