Now that the debugger branch was merged in, I decided to try a rebuild. It went mostly OK - I only had to point it to the right libraries for hunspell and gamin. make and install seemed to go OK.
Now that I run CB, I get an error window pop up saying that some plugins could not be loaded. Specifically, libFileManager.so and libSpellChecker.so. Both of these files (as well as their .la) counterparts are in /usr/local/lib/codeblocks/plugins the pop up mentions looking at the application log, but I have no idea where to find that, unless it is the stdout coming into the console window, which tells me nothing regarding these two libraries.
Any ideas??
