News on installing under Ubuntu

[kencamargo]

After an update today to the wxWidgets libs under Ubuntu Lucid (10.4), pasgui's packaged codeblocks stopped working.

Jen's package is now working without needing to install wxWidgets "official" libs, although the wx version under Ubuntu is still 2.8.10

Just so that other Ubuntu users will know.

Second point and my question: what's your problem/question ?

Third point: why is he trying to install a 32-bit package on a 64-bit distribution?

Fourth point: why is he not using the recommended approach of setting up the repositories and then using synaptic or the Software Central?
