Hi Antonio
Just installed Ubuntu 7.10. Existing code (compiled on Ubuntu 7.04) operates fine unchanged.
Thought I would install the necessary components to do development under 7.10 and got the following results:
gcc - already at latest version
libgtk2.0-dev not found, suggested libgtk2.0-bin
libncurses5-dev not found
libgpmg1-dev not found
libgnomeprintui2.2-dev not found
glade-2 not found
It's late here so I may not be thinking straight but can you throw any light on this?
(This was a brand new install on a new PC)
Thanks

Hi Antonio
Yes I'm using
sudo apt-get install <package-name>
to try to install them, but getting results as per previous post.
I guess one possibility is that I need to add a repository, or maybe for 7.10 these packages are different versions with different names. That might mean that the lib files have new names and that buildx.sh needs some modification.
When you moved to version 7.10 of Ubuntu was it a fresh install or an upgrade?
I might just be able to copy the lib files across from my 7.04 box (which I was intending to upgrade). But I figure it's something worth figuring out as to how to acquire the correct packages for others wishing to move to Linux / FiveLinux.
The nice thing is that code compiled and linked under 7.04 runs just fine on 7.10 so there is no immediate problem or disruption here.
Thanks

Hi Antonio
I believe that the issue is probably repository setup. I tried to download k3b and that wasn't found either! So I tried to download k3b via [Applications] [Add/Remove] and got a message saying it wasn't supported on the i386 platform (which is ridiculous). So I have played with repositories and k3b is currently downloading. Which might well mean that glade-2 etc will now download. Will let you know. But in the meantime no need to try to resolve this issue.
Thanks
