There are dependency issues if you try to install codeblocks 16.01 on ubuntu 16.04 through ppa:damien-moore/codeblocks-stable. :-[
-
I think I have the same problem with clean 16.04 install of Ubuntu (in VM).
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
codeblocks : Depends: libcodeblocks0 (= 16.01~ubuntu16.04.1) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: libwxbase2.8-0 (>= 2.8.12.1+dfsg2) but it is not installable
Depends: libwxgtk2.8-0 (>= 2.8.12.1+dfsg2) but it is not installable
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

Exactly!

What version of wxgtk exists on Ubuntu 16.04?

libwxgtk3.0-0v5
Should I try to find some repository which install older version of gtk ( 2.8 )?
If so, do you indicate some?

You likely need to wait or self build Code::Blocks.
You could try the Debian stretch (Testing) deb files and see if that works.
NOTE: Code::Blocks built using wxWidgets 3.0 is NOT a stable as using wxWidgets 2.8.12.

Given these packages are autobuilt on launchpad, presumably using a 16.04 VM, I'm not even sure how this is possible. I guess they recently took a bunch of packages out of their repos. Surely code::blocks isn't the only package with a 2.8 dependency?
Worst case, I can add wx2.8 packages to the PPA. I will investigate the options in the next few days, but I will keep an eye on this thread in case anyone else has a simple solution.

Cool! PPA had built against gtk 3.0 automatically.
But, in fact, it is not as stable as the previous one I was using at 15.10 (Code::Blocks 16.01 at Ubuntu 15.10, that I suppose to be linked against gtk 2.8 ).
For example, the version appears as subversion revision 10835 (and not 16.01).

Which PPA are you talking about? It's not my codeblocks-stable one. This daily one based on current trunk (in my sig) IS working, however: https://launchpad.net/~damien-moore/+archive/ubuntu/codeblocks

In wx3.0 builds you have to disable the class browser in the code completion settings to prevent random crashes.

Hello, newbie here...
Just passed by to tell you, that in Ubuntu Mate 16.04, I installed code::blocks from https://launchpad.net/~damien-moore/+archive/ubuntu/codeblocks and works like a charm!
Thanks and keep up the good work!
-
Small update to say that I am in the process of adding wxwidgets2.8 into ppa:damien-moore/codeblocks-stable so the wx2.8 dependency can be resolved on 16.04. The build should be done in about an hour. If it succeeds, it would be great if someone can test it out:

Hello don't know why but I'm still getting ascendancies issue... I'm supposing you already added wxwidgets2.8 into ppa:damien-moore/codeblocks-stable so the wx2.8 dependency can be resolved on 16.04.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
codeblocks : Depends: libcodeblocks0 (= 16.01~ubuntu16.04.1) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: libwxbase2.8-0 (>= 2.8.12.1+dfsg2) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: libwxgtk2.8-0 (>= 2.8.12.1+dfsg2) but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
Do you currently have a solution for this?

Thanks for testing. I'm forcing a rebuild and hopefully that will do the trick. You can see the progress here (https://code.launchpad.net/~damien-moore/+recipe/codeblocks-16.01-release).
EDIT: It failed. I'm investigating...

I have the same problem, I can not even install the library individually, and this is considering that my installation of Ubuntu 16.04 is fresh.
Ubuntu has dropped libwxbase2.8-0??

Yup. I'm going to upgrade to 16.04 and see if I can fix the problem with the PPA.

thank you Damien, i appreciate the help.
I do not know if this information helps, but the site "packages.ubuntu.com" does not list libwxbase2.8-0 as available in Xenial, as you can see here (http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=libwxbase)
-
Try again.

Try again.
is alive!! It is working hahahaha, Successfully installed and tested, perhaps the topic may already be marked as solved.
Now I go back to the studies, thank you! How do you fixed it?

I had the wrong version string for the wxWidgets build that I put in the PPA. Longer version here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/763754/launchpad-build-recipes-how-do-i-correctly-specify-build-dependencies-for-packa

I was just reading this post and the bug report few seconds before returning to the forum and read your answer. Although I do not have much knowledge about it I could understand the problem. Probably this will help others who depend on the same package to resolve the dependency problems in 16.04.
and again thanks a lot! And sorry for bad english.

Try apt-get removing codeblocks and wxwidgets and try again.

Thanks a lot, that was it: I had some old codeblocks libraries which were not remove by apt-get --purge autoremove
Manually removing all codeblocks related libraries and doing apt-get install codeblocks solved the issue.
Thanks again ;D

Hello,
I started with Linux; I chose 'Kubuntu-16.04-LTS-amd64 (xenial)' because you offer a package for 'wxwidgets2.8'.
Could you provide the gcc version to compile me 'wxwidgets2.8' because I used gcc-4.7 (with CodeBlocks-svn11210) and is inconsistent?.
Thank you for this excellent work : this is the only version for ubuntu.
-
@dmoore
I finally found the version -> g ++ - 5.4.0
Construction of CB-svn-11210 is correct and the contrib plugins.
Are you planning to provide 'wxWidgets-2.8' for 'Ubuntu-17.04 (zesty) and 17.10 (artful) ?
-
I don't think it is a good idea for someone to bother with wx28 builds on ubuntu/debian. We should provide wx3x builds and try to fix as many issues as we can. C::B should be usable already on ubuntu.
