PB 4 Linux newbie question

naw · Post by **naw** » Fri Aug 01, 2003 12:46 pm

Hi, I just downloaded PB for Linux (demo version) in desperation 'cos Fred hasn't sent me the proper one and I'm trying to do some porting to Linux, but am getting this message:

# pbcompile Examples/Sources/Misc.pb

Line 1: Cant Load any PureLibraries ! Please re-install Purebasic

- I'm guessing that I need to set a $LIBPATH type variable, but I tried without success (using Redhat8.0, installed GTK+1.2 & SDL1.2)...

Can anyone give any suggestions?

Is PureBasic directory in /usr/share/ ?
Do you have Fasm? Need to be in /usr/bin/

Hi, Thanks - putting PB into /usr/share helped and the errors have changed a little, now...

Now, I'm just getting:
sh: line 1: fasm: command not found
sh: line 1: gtk-config: command not found
gcc: PureBasic.o: No such file or directory

I do have /usr/share/purebasic/Compilers/fasm but not gtk-config.

All of these are installed:

gtk+-1.2.10-22.i386.rpm
gtk2-2.0.6-8.i386.rpm
gtk2-engines-1.9.0-4.i386.rpm
gtk-engines-0.11-13.i386.rpm

Thanks - Nigel

Well...

1. fasm is in purebasic/bin directory, copy it to /usr/bin/
2. perhaps you need gtk devel library, try to install it. I think it is: gtk+-devel-1.2.10-22.i386.rpm

Hi Saboteur,

Sorry for late response - took 2 weeks hols in France (went Fred spotting) - just got back...

Well - I did as you suggested (copied /usr/share & installed gtx dev libs) and it works - thanks very much!

Ok... now let's go to code
