I'm running Red Hat EL3, which should be more or less equivalent with Fedora Core 3.
I've installed wxGTK which required wxGTK-xrc, so that was also installed. A couple of library updates later, I install CodeBlocks RC2. When run, I get an error dialog saying, "Something terrible has happened and CodeBlocks will be closed." Obviously a paraphrase, but the take home message is that I get a core dump.
So, can I not run on EL3? Any tips?

Hello,
May be you can give a try with a nightly build (FC4+5 RPM package). RC2 is old now.
Best wishes,

For the Fedora Core 4+5 package you need wxGTK 2.6. I don't know whether there is a wxGTK 2.6 package for FC3 (I did a quick search, but found none :( )

I can't seem to find wxGTK for FC3 either. ugh. :( Frustration is setting in.

Hello,
You can always try to build wxGTK by yourself :). See here for a bit of info:

Yeah, that thought had crossed my mind. At this point I'm not sure if I'm brave enough to try and build it on my own. :shock: Thanks for the response, though.

Hello,
I think that it would be a useful experience :). It should not be too difficult anyway.
Best wishes,

That was painful.
