Hi folks,

Now i like to install it on a linux mint machine.

there must be an pb executable in... but there is no.

so i can not install it... can somebody help me please?

I installed it last night with mk-soft's guide and it works.
Linux Mint 19.1 x86 and PB 5.70 x86

Btw. the "executable" is the file : purebasic in the folder : "compilers". Thats the IDE

Hi bisonte,
I tried to folow your commands from the link.
But it failed in this way:

$ sudo apt-get install libgnomeprintui2.2-dev libxine-dev
Pakketlijsten worden ingelezen... Klaar
Boom van vereisten wordt opgebouwd
De statusinformatie wordt gelezen... Klaar
E: Kan pakket libgnomeprintui2.2-dev niet vinden
E: Kon geen enkel pakket vinden via expansie (glob) 'libgnomeprintui2.2-dev'
E: Kon geen enkel pakket vinden via regex 'libgnomeprintui2.2-dev'
E: Kan pakket libxine-dev niet vinden


So, what to do now?

Did you try to execute "checkinstall.sh" in the purebasic directory?
What's the result?

[wimapon]

Bisonte, i did all the commands now you mentions. This went okay.

checkinstall.sh gave:
wim@wim-desktop-mint:~/purebasic_linux$ ./checkinstall.sh
ls: cannot access '/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.*': No such file or directory
libstdc++ not found.
libstdc++ devel package need to be installed to use PureBasic

When i do after this: sudo apt-get install libstdc++
i get a whole lot of problems info like: ( this is just the last few lines)

7.3.0-27ubuntu1~18.04cross1 zal geïnstalleerd worden
libstdc++6-8-dbg-sparc64-cross : Conflicteert met: libstdc++6-5-dbg-sparc64-cross maar 5.5.0-12ubuntu1cross1 zal geïnstalleerd worden

E: Kan problemen niet verhelpen, u houdt defecte pakketten vast.

Repeat the install

sudo apt-get install build-essential gcc g++

These are no longer needed

;sudo apt-get install libgnome2-dev
;sudo apt-get install libgnomeprintui2.2-dev libxine-dev

Hi mk-soft

when i did: sudo apt-get install build-essential gcc g++
i get the next info:

build-essential is reeds de nieuwste versie (12.4ubuntu1).
g++ is reeds de nieuwste versie (4:7.3.0-3ubuntu2.1).
gcc is reeds de nieuwste versie (4:7.3.0-3ubuntu2.1).
0 opgewaardeerd, 0 nieuw geïnstalleerd, 0 te verwijderen en 282 niet opgewaardeerd.


so nothing changed as far as i can see.
but purebasic from the directory compilers still does not work... nothing hapened.

I think your linux mint is too old...

Update to Linux Mint 19.1 (X64)
Here it runs under Mint 19.0 (X64 - VM)

Hi

Having just installed PB 5.7 on Linux mint 19.1 64 and 32 bit it definately works so keep trying. My Linux knowledge is extremely limited but both versions work exceptionally well.

I kept following the links above until I got it working.

Hi Folks,

Well, my linux is Linux Mint 19.1 and my purebasic is V 4.30

probably my PureBasic is too old??

In the past i used it on Ubuntu 11.x
