I'm a beginner to c++ and IDE's in general and so what I need is an IDE that takes care of all the technical stuff while I concentrate on learning the language, and Code::Blocks 8.02 does that very well. My question is should I even bother upgrading to 10.05, and if I do, are there any instructions a beginner can follow to upgrade correctly?
For example, do I need to remove 8.02 before installing 10.05? I downloaded the Debian .tar file and extracted it. Is there any order I should follow in installing the 10-15 separate .deb packages? I looked for specific instructions but was unable to find them.
I'm using Lubuntu 10.04.
