[Linux Mint v18.3 sylvia] Install C::B v17.12 !!!
« on: April 02, 2018, 02:08:55 am »
Hello,
Can anyone please tell me how he managed to install C::B v17.12 under Linux Mint v18.3 Sylvia or Ubuntu v16.04.4 LTS (Xenial Xerus), (not from the source code), using jenslody repos, Because I have tried all I have with no avail, and if I continue trying, I will certainly become mad.
I have got lots of dependencies issues.
Code
tomay@tomay-Precision-M4700 ~ $ sudo apt-get install codeblocks codeblocks-common libcodeblocks0 codeblocks-dbg codeblocks-contrib codeblocks-libwxcontrib0 codeblocks-contrib-common codeblocks-contrib-dbg codeblocks-dev codeblocks-headers codeblocks-wxcontrib-dev codeblocks-wxcontrib-headers libwxsmithlib0 libwxsmithlib0-dev wxsmith-dev wxsmith-headers

One possibility would be to compile it from source (not hard: https://github.com/bluehazzard/codeblocks_sf/wiki/build_linux_mint_18)
One possibility would be to complain at the package maintainer at debian/ubuntu that they should update codeblocks to the latest release
One possibility is to use ppa: https://launchpad.net/~pasgui/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+packages or https://launchpad.net/~damien-moore/+archive/ubuntu/codeblocks-stable or https://launchpad.net/~damien-moore/+archive/ubuntu/codeblocks

I ended up compiling it from source.

Thank you for your help.
