some questions

[ironic]

Hi there

got some questions about code::blocks.

1) Why isn't it registered in gentoo's portage (even theres no "stable" 1.0 release, you could add it masked)
2) Why is the amd64 version of ubuntu not available (even its marked in the svn download section, but berlios only got i386)

3) Technical issues: On my gentoo amd64 machine, codeblocks suddenly quits, without bugbuddy starting. It happens often when I load a file from the left project window. There is no log generated. Any ideas?

Thx for your help!

I have no clue about gentoo. Can you give us more info?

2) Why is the amd64 version of ubuntu not available (even its marked in the svn download section, but berlios only got i386)

Because no one built it lately?

3) Technical issues: On my gentoo amd64 machine, codeblocks suddenly quits, without bugbuddy starting. It happens often when I load a file from the left project window. There is no log generated. Any ideas?

Unfortunately no, not with this (non) info...
Can you try running it from the command-line? Or even better through gdb?

As far as I know there is an ebuild in gentoo's bug tracker. I don't know why this isn't part of the portage tree yet, you probably have to ask the portage maintainer about that. Also I don't know who is the maintainer of this ebuild and whether he keeps it still up-to-date or not.

Anyway, if you find the ebuild you can create your own portage overlay with it and then simply "emerge" Code::Blocks.

1)The Portage is gentoo's package manager. You can search, fetch and build packages like debians dpkg/apt. Admins/Developers are able to add builds every day (night builds) to portage.

2) So why is it written in http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php?title=Compiled_packages_of_Code::Blocks? (section SVN)

3)gdb showed me:

(gdb) run codeblocks

Sorry, no backtrace available. Note: The project file was created by windows codeblocks RC2.



EDIT:
@ Meister:

Anyway, if you find the ebuild you can create your own portage overlay with it and then simply "emerge" Code::Blocks.

i know i know, thats what ebuilds are good for. but if you manually download codeblocks ebuild you
1) dont know if its the newest ebuild
2) you have to fetch, digest, make and install yourself (annoying if you use the nightly builds every day)
3) no dependencies are calculated

it would be GREAT if codeblocks would be added to the official portage tree. Then, you can simply emerge --sync && emerge portage && emerge codeblocks (or smthing else) and codeblocks is built.

Try to build the latest SVN version. It contains a fix for this.

thx mandrav, that did the trick 


btw. adding codeblocks to gentoo's portage would be a great propaganda :p
