Install of Purebasic with Arch-Linux and PACMAN
I once installed and testet with Manjaro on my PI 400.
Unpacked Purebasic for Raspberry (Arm64) and started it. It runs.
Because I have no experience with package manager "PACMAN", which packages I have to install, I installed all "base-devel".
sudo pacman -S base-devel
For the WebGadget and the OpenGLGadget I installed the following packages.
sudo pacman -S webkit2gtk
sudo pacman -S glfw-x11
sudo pacman -S glu
After that, so far the examples of Purebasic ran.
Install of Purebasic on Fedora 35

Install Purebasic v5.72 and v6.00 - Fedora 35

Hello,
I'm totally new with linux!
Did everything what is described in this posting.
When I want to start the program by click onto the icon I get this error:
Failed to execute child process "Path" (Permission denied")
What to do to start the Purebasic?
Thanks for your help in advance

The official way is to run checkinstall.sh and then if everything is ok, run launch.sh. You unzip, untar the purebasic archive and then "cd purebasic" into the extracted folder.
I start the (custom bugfixed version from mk-soft i got from the purebasic discord chat - join it!) IDE manually by first elevating my terminal user rights (sudo /bin/bash) and then run the IDE directly purebasic/compilers/purebasic
That works and avoids trouble with user rights the IDE otherwise might have, but linuxers will likely tell you never to do that because of the potential security risk (any breach of the purebasic IDE will get the attacker a root shell to your machine).

There should be no legitimate problems in personal folders (not documents folders) to run apps.
Don't know what it looks like under all Linux distributions.
Maybe unpacked in the wrong folder
or not set the option "Run as Program" in the properties of Icon.
The bugfixed Linux IDE can be found here:

Hi, tested this too.
No success.
I think I will give up with linux, all things with this OS are so horrible complicated.
Thanks a lot

Give up so easily?
1. Correct version taken. PB X64 for Linux X64
2. Double-click on Archives and then drag and drop the folder into your Personal Folder. (Create folder 'Apps')
3. Installed the required libs in the terminal
4. Open PB folder (./Apps/purebasic/compilers) and double click on program 'purebasic'

Hi, thanks, I did all this without any success.
I'm programming all apps for Windows. I simply wanted to test if my sources are also running under Linux, and how they are looking.

Which linux version do you use?
Which vm ware do you use? (VirtualBox, e.g.)

Ah,
Ok, use older version from purebasic (pb v5.70)
Its a problem with zlib.
You can see the problem, when you starting the ide from terminal.
michael@Ubuntu-1604:~/Apps/purebasic-v572/compilers$ ./purebasic
./purebasic: /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libz.so.1: version `ZLIB_1.2.9' not found (required by ./purebasic)
My fixed IDE can work with pb v5.70
P.S. Alternate
Install VirtuelBox and VirtualBox Extension Pack on windows
Create Linux Machines: Examples
- Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (If used WebGadget)
- Ubuntu 20.04 LTS

Thank you very much for your help.
I have invested a long time to install Linux on this old machine. Even this was difficult and a lot of commands in the terminal have been necessary. Started my programming with MSDOS and then from Windows 1 to 10. So I'm an experienced user of Windows. Click INSTALL and ready! It was a horrible experience even to install Linux, tested a lot of versions, not one was installing without my deep editing help.
At least this version was running. But not PB.
It's not so important for me, just curious.
Thanks, Rainer.
